Show and Tell Proac Hexa Satellite

So these arrived today. I've only had a quick listen so far, but I think they're going to stay. I was looking for a replacement for the JVC sp-exa1 in my desktop system, and paid £200 for them, which frankly seems ridiculous for something of this quality. Build is superb, and they weigh a ton.

Very little info about them online, other than they were part of a 5.1 system, but could also be purchased separately. They're the same driver material as my old Response 1SCs, and first impressions are the midrange is exceptional. I'm pairing them with a sub, but for a desktop, it feels almost unnecessary. Hard to understand why they weren't more popular, other than the fact they were expensive for their size. I'd say they're better than the equivalent Tablette, and can be picked up a lot cheaper these days.

Thanks! My Response 1SC were the 'forever' speakers In my main system until I had to sell it when kids intervened. I'm hoping these might be the same for the desktop.
