Superb speaker, used price represents great value, needs good source.
A great speaker especially at the s/hand price point. I have owned GB1, FB1 and these. They lift the vocal frequencies above the FB1 but are a little more picky on placement compared to the GB1. Great bass, brilliant transparency with no colouration that I can detect. They will show up a bad source recording but with high bit rate DVD-A or DTS-HD master I can't fault them.

Wonderful wide angle
This lens produces very dramatic shots at the 10mm end and works well for landscapes at the 20mm end too. The resulting images are sharpest around the mid aperture range but still acceptable wide open.
I was looking at the Nikon wide angle lens too but the price difference makes this lens a bargain because it is achieving the results I desire.
