I had Sterling LS3/6 Reference's. Whilst bass was there, dynamics were slightly lacking and bass was not precise enough for me with the amplification available. They did the midrange thing and had good treble. The lack of speed was most obvious with metal but they did some Jazz fine. Not an allrounder but then I think many BBC designs aren't. They are usually very application specific. More so than most other designs.
Getting the correct model for the right room size and amplification is vital.
