Actually my friends laughed because we all had the same "man, that kinda sucks" look on our faces when the music played, but we sure didn't see it that way on the way there! Yes, it might not seem like those very expensive speakers (or more importantly, headphones) are $20,000 better, but the positional cues are so precise and the sound is so nimble, detail is all there but subtle instead of being thrown right at you (on the Utopia, not the Dyns), and the treble was unbelievable (on the Sonus Faber)...but damn, if we had that much money to toss at anything, we'd get one of those and build a room around them.
