They won't sound like your AT cans at all. The A7s has very little low end. They image well and produce a nice sound stage if the recording calls for it, but the highs can be rather fatiguing and too harsh. If you plan on getting them, be sure to audition them first.
I second that. Take an audition first. Musos have very little low end compared to other highly priced monitors. But if you're after imaging, sound stage, instrument separation, detail/clarity, mid and high end extensions they are brilliant. Go for an audition. Because when I was at the Hifi store I had an audition with B&W and KEF ones and found that KEF are a little on the harsh/very bright side. It also depends on the way you amp them. But for active monitors you certainly need an audition as you can't alter much afterwards.
