I'm possibly excited *if* it sounds better than my XB500, which I don't like all that much.

Midrange is more recessed than XB500.  Highs have more sparkle and bass is kinda boomy, but not in a good way.  I am burning it in right now so I hope the sound improves.

I do like the design though... maybe a driver swap is the way to go here.
