I would tend to agree with how you described it: imaging excellent, but a bit cold. The TC-50 on the other hand is much warmer through the mid-range, though the imaging not as quite as good. One reason I'll never buy an Angelus though, is that the bass is very disappointing. Better to go with TC-50's and perhaps add a sub-woofer later. If you are serious about the Angelus, I saw a used pair going for the unbelievably low price of $525 in the back pages of Stereophile, recently. -- Donald Maffly
