ProAc Response 2.5 transparent?

I'm considering the 2.5 for jazz thanks to their reputation for smooth warm sound. I've seen some reviews in both magazines and forums suggesting the 2.5s may not be the most resolving speakers for fine inner detail, pinpoint imaging, and air. One stated cymbals sounded more "hifi" than real. If you have spent time with 2.5s, I would very much appreciate your comments about their transparency, resolving, space, and imaging.

Thanks
Jim

I have owned a pair of 2.5's for many years. To this day I feel it will be the last speaker I will ever purchase. I never tire of the wonderful musicality of these.
I listen to lots of jazz, vocals, classical and actually anything that is good. Everything sounds terrific on these.
By the way they replaced a pair of Thiel 2.5 which was way to clinical and edgy. I listen for long periods and they were killing me.

The proac's never disappoint!
