PMC Speakers Owner Thread

Sure, Alex.  

Low listening Level: I think the Twenty5.26 performs well, but only if I drive them with high-powered amps.  The sound quality, when listening at the low volume, is much better when I pair them with the 800 but not with the 200.  Maybe it's my personal preference, I like to listen to them slightly louder for certain genres of music.

I have only tried the Olympica 2 and Sopra 2, but not 804 D3.  This will be from my memory as I didn't have a chance to try them all in one place.
Sopra 2 driven by the 800 in a well-treated room: I've found the 25.26 to be more neutral while the Sopra 2 is sweeter (warmer?) on female vocal.  The bass on the 25.26 is tighter probably due to the transmission-line design.  Soundstage width and depth are similar.  I can happily live with either of them.  

Olympica 2 driven by McIntosh integrated amp: Compared to the 25.26, they sound more relaxing.  I didn't get a chance to use my own test tracks though.  Their sonic quality is closer to the Sopra 2 than the PMC.  The room I was in when I listened to the Olympica 2 was much bigger so I felt that their soundstage was wider.  Their appearance is the most gorgeous.

Thanks for the comprehensive reply!

I'll put th PMCs on my audition list.
