I had done a lot of research before purchasing and these are quite comparable to genelecs. They are definitely big and really powerful. have a decent bass which if needed can go beyond normal levels. Clarity is what's the real deal with these.mid and high, all really clear. One funny thing is that I ordered the Class D PM100 V2 which is the new version. But received the older version of the PM100 which is class AB. So I actually paid for the newer version. I'm happy though, have formed a bond with them, no complaints.
