After initial listening tests, I can attest to the claim of better quality bass performance and a spacious soundstage of a Transmission Line speaker. The Tang Band point source full range drivers are truly very well designed. The speakers disappear and you and you are left only with the music. These came out better than I initially expected, and honestly, I find myself listening to these speakers more and more. Even with a moderate bass response, the sound is full enough not to fire up the subwoofer to fill in the low end. A very balanced, detailed and well rounded sound indeed!
