Pyrotechnics are all the buzz words -- if i notice it and it gets in the way it's a pyrotechnic to me -- I never listen live and say wow check out the imaging of the band. And it seems that the buzz words change -- soudnstaging used to be that you could tell where the instruments were on the stage and they were separate entities - Imaging has been used to sdescribe this exact thing so who knows - I try to stop worrying about the lingo for the same reason I stopped intently reading the meausrements of and spec sheets by the brands as much as possible -- even then I get pulled into them from time to time on issues like bass and treble -- which is also silly since I've heard lots of speakers that claim 40hz and a great many sound like they have it and others that don't.

Really it all just boils down to listening and if it does the musical genres you love then that;s the one to buy. My Whardefales are not supremely truthful in audiophile accuracy terms but it is killer for music like AC/DC Aerosmith and hard and heavy rock. If this is the music one listens to 90% of the time along with movies then these people would probably get a lot of enjoyment out of them -- I did and still do.

My Wharfedales are three ways and look very much like these but with three drivers http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...777218135&rd=1

Mine were the flagship though and came a few years after the E70 -- no law says you can;t have two sets of speakers -- one to take the pounding for rock and then another kind to listen to other genres.
