I have just bought MA RX8. These are the thoughts from a cheap cheap Newbie - sorry I can't type Chinese as I am out of town at the moment.
My Monitor Audio speakers are yet to be fully run-in, but up till now I am enjoying them for both movies and music. Bass is crisp and clear, while the high notes are very smooth and engaging, even more so than the RX6. I think the tweeter of the RX8 speakers are even better than RS6 which I have auditioned at the Yuen Long shop. MA speakers, no matter RS6 which I have listened to in Yuen Long, or the RX8's which are sitting at my home now, are very good for female vocal and for orchestral music. The details and speed of these speakers are just amazing. You can hear every bullet firing, flying and hitting its target even in the most complicated gun-firing scenes. I went for RX8 instead of RX6 for the extra mid-bass which my SVS lacks, but I think RX6 is good enough for use.
The Yuen Long shop does not have the RX series for audition yet, but you can try out RS6 there. However, if you like the sound of RS6, you should try to get RX6 or RX8 instead if budget allows - they maintain the Monitor Audio signature accuracy and detail but with added warmth and smoother highs. I consider these speakers very good value for money.
If you are considering MA speakers, you should definitely go to the Yuen Long shop to try them out. I went all the way from Eastern Kowloon and then to Hong Kong island to pick up my friend (who is a Hi-fi fan) and then to Yuen Long via Western Harbour tunnel and "Dai Lam" tunnel - took us only around half an hour's drive to get there. It is quite close to the highway exit and is quite easy to find as it is on the main road in Yuen Long. I even bought some "wife cake" back after my visit last week just to celebrate. And guess what - even my Hi-fi friend who is a strictly 2.0 channel guy said they are great speakers.
Good luck, and do go to listen. I have not auditioned the Dali Ikon speakers, but I believe the choice will be clear after you have auditioned the RS6's.
Very good surrounding sound - maybe because I placed the RX-1's at the back too low, I can't hear much coming from it - all the sound in the back seemed to be coming from the RX-FX's.
