This is exactly my opinion. They have a great design, high quality materials but the sound quality is just okay. Buy it, if the price doens't matter and if you want to go for a good show with the center speaker, but not for sound quality.

This weekend I had a different experience in a new 911 Porsche. We had one of the biggest High End exhibitions here in Munich. Beside theire normal equipment, I could listen some time to the new Burmester sound system in the 911. This was the first time that I was really impressed by a car audio system.
