That’s not to say they don’t do all kinds of music very well indeed, for they are as ‘universal’ a speaker as we’ve heard at this price point. The Amati G5s certainly give a glowingly close-up view of Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s voice on ‘Tokyo’ [Hana; Cooking Vinyl download], her (slightly overlong) romantic/bittersweet paean to Japan, written after an early 2020 trip just before the pandemic struck.

So too, they are light and sprightly with Bill Charlap’s ‘Not A Care In The World’ [Notes From New York, Impulse!; 96kHz/24-bit], while big and thunderous with the pulsing bass and synths from Alison Goldfrapp’s ‘Fever (Special Request Club Mix)’ from her gorgeous The Love Invention solo set [Skint/BMG BRASSIC128CD]. Indeed, from Bach Brandenburgs to Armin van Buuren’s chilled yet mighty A State Of Trance 2023 mix [Armada ARMA482], complete with suitably pounding club bass, these fifth-generation Amatis came up shining. Now all you have to do is find an amp capable of keeping them under control
