For those of you who have actually heard these bookshelves, would you describe the sound as being laid back?

I'm thinking of upgrading my main speakers and was planning on buying something that costs more than $300, but I have read good things about these little boxes.

I have a decent subwoofer (Velodyne VA-907.2), which will take care of the frequencies below 80hz, so these would not be a problem(cosidering they are only a ported 5").

Currently I am running some MB Quart QLC200's, which no one has probably ever even heard of, but they are a medium sized bookshelf, with a 1" metal dome tweeter, and a 6.5" polycarbonate woofer, front ported. They do sound good for what I paid for them (picked them up for wholesale, $200, when they retailed for $400). So some might say I would be downgrading in quality, but honestly I feel these speakers lack appeal. For one thing, they are a little bright, just like the MB Quarts I had for a short period in my car. I don't care for bright sounding audio gear (fatigue's the ears).

I'm wondering if these EPOS would work as a good all around listener. My music tastes range from a lot of old jazz, all the way to 80's pop/rock. I'm wondering if these things would work well for my purpose. They would be driven by an Adcom GFA-545.

Even though it is not a concrete attribute, I feel like metal dome tweeters for the most part seem to be more bright and rough on my ears. In the past, I have seemed to enjoy the sound more out of speaker systems that had soft dome tweeters of some form. I am very fond of A/D/S, they are very neutral and laid back, which is exactly what I want (some people think this sound is plain, but I'm all about it).

Thanks for the input.
