Got the LSR305s this morning. Only a few hours in, but these are keepers for me. I don't have a whole lot of experience, so I can't compare them to a wide range of alternatives, but they sound fantastic to me, with nothing making me think "I wish this was different..". Surprisingly good low end for the size, but not boomy. To me, they sound open, not boxy or particularly tube-y. Going through different genres right now, and I'm blown away by how well they reproduce uncompressed classical lute and ukulele recordings. No coloration that I can discern. These are definitely usable for general purpose and recreational listening, too. I don't excessively dabble in super low frequencies, but the Chris Liebing tracks (10 Years CLR) I played sounded great.

It's not an ideal room, no proper/sufficient treating, and they are not perfectly placed (they sit on 3" tall iso pads, the backs diagonally facing the walls in a 30 degrees angle, 2ft away), so I can only imagine how stunning they must be under optimal conditions. The interface is a Scarlett 2i2, Cordial CFM 3 MV balanced cables.

There is a minimal hissing of the tweeters, though I only hear it when I put my ear on them, or crank them up to unrealistic volume levels and get close, which I think is normal for most active monitors, and it's not audible in normal operation. (Edit: Set the volume level to 3 of 10, and cranked up the audio interface - still much louder than I would ever listen to anything, but now when cranked up on the source's side the hum is only there when putting the ear on the speakers, i.e. not audible even when close without physical contact). I found the power cables a little short, but workable.

Just early impressions, but so far these are definitely keepers and a remorse-free purchase. Justified hype. (I almost want a second set now for another room.)
