Yes, sounds via YouTube are relative at best, and no one should really judge a speaker that way, although one is usually safe with a summary dismissal where any commercial hi-fi product is concerned.  I guess I was amused by the "sales notes" and arbitrary measurements popping up on the screen, and I like the fact that all the nonsense is right out in the open, set against that stupid "music".  The prevalence of the insignificant music is hard to get around because most components and systems were "designed" around and "developed" for this crap, so even if one brings LPs or CDs to a "showroom", they are listening through a system tuned that way.

These speakers sound to me rather like big Audio Note speakers, maybe trying harder for LF.  Some boxy sound in lower MF, like the O-96.  The O-93 has none of this but it doesn't sound as natural in that region with respect to balance, either.
