My old boss had one on an Debut Xpression III. I heard it a couple times. The high frequencies didn't sound smooth to my ear. Not distorted, but fairly harsh. Can't remember the amp he used but the speakers were Paradigm Monitor 7's. The bass was tight and had overall, a warm sound.

Partial blame to the Paradigms on the harshness, IMO.

Agreed! Never really cared for those.
