I know, right :-).....told ya :-)

"Transparent" is very accurate description of it.  Another of my mates who
comes around for our fun in-studio DJ sessions, described it as not "having
to fight the monitors".  This speaks to another other first impressions:
compared to my old Adam A7s, I had to pump more volume just to have it
sound loud.  However, this "hotness" of the A7 (and a bunch other monitors)
is what was distorting my mixing attempts, and the "fighting" my mate was
referring to.  The D8s can surely deliver when asked of, but it's just
that, they wait for you to ask before doing it themselves :-)  But the
clarity and transparency is amazing; something about this design of theirs.
