Audio Physic Virgo 5s

It's not exactly square and none of the other speakers I had in my room (and I've had quite a bit) had this problem. According to my dealer it's indeed a problem of AP. He always has a lot of problems making these speakers sound their best at shows too.

I had them in my room and found them quite booming. The bass on lean albums was ok (since there was hardly any bass audible), but on a decent bass-prominent album, it was always booming and bloated.

My expirience mirrors yours.

Lyric Hifi in Manhattan and White Plains carry Audio Physic. You may want to call and see if they have the Virgos on the floor. The Manhattan store is far better from a customer service standpoint than the White Plains store from my experience. I won't set foot in the White Plains store again.

I haven't heard the Virgos, but I have heard a few others and own the Yara Evolution Bookshelves. Never heard any boominess nor imbalance between ranges in any AP. I'd charecterize AP as tight, quick, and slightly lean in bass. Everyone's ears, rooms, systems, and music is different, and therefore YMMV.

Other AP speakers I have heard were clearly more restrained in the bass. Virgo V is not.

FYI, my reference is Wilson Sophia II and Avalon Eidolon Vision.

Those of you have heard both the Virgo V and the Virgo II - how would you characterize the differences between them?
(I'm a long-time owner of the IIs)

Thanks in advance
