Austin - I recently tried one of these simply because I couldn't hold off any longer. :-D Overall it was a little harsh and muted for me. I think dryboxing it a little longer COULD have helped a little bit. I'll have to revisit them in 6 months or so.

I agree. If they are good now, think how they will be in another 4-5 years. Oh mama...

Tottally agree about them being far superior to the PR. I also feel they remind me a lot of the 898 that's sadly been discontinued.

Cliff, if you have anymore they are smoking very well right now. These were very wet upon original release (Much like PL Lons) and had lots of draw issues. I have had a few over the last 2 weeks and they have really come around.

I haven't touched them since I wrote that. I guess that's good, more age! I'll have to pull out a single and give it a whirl.
