Crazy I have 4 Dolby Atmos systems. We have 73 speakers that I can think of, not counting the 14 TVs. That sounds really over the top but it's a big house.
My Steinway Spiro/r is the most hi fi thing I own.

Steinway & Sons Spiro/r Model B Grand Piano
This piano will playback nearly exactly what the original musician played the keys have 1000 points of dynamic resolution. This is the greatest HiFi system ever.
Very interesting. I have a pair of JLs as well and absolutely love them also. But I heard the 9Hs and thought that they were very good at handling bass. I actually did not feel that they needed subs - possibly a system specific outcome!
