Absolutely, the bass output is phenominal though and is very different from what I have heard from other speakers.

Pop productions can sound too bassy but this is probably attributable to the production rather than the equipment. I also had to set the loudspeakers to bass -2 to get a sound I liked - bear in mind that I have only played them for 4 hours or so and they are both corner placed (with boundary compensation set to corner).

All in all a cracking sound though.

I also believe that What Hifi had the DSP5200s in their demo system at the Bristol HiFi show and the very man who reviewed them in the mag was raving about how good they were at the show.

What was is the wind blowing today?

The 5200s in my opinion outperform the 5000s by a fair margin.
