It’s hard to explain in words, except that these towers sound very good. I needed to get a pair of speakers that I wouldn’t need to upgrade from. I don’t know how any other speaker could sound better. One thing I’ve noticed is that I can hear the stereo separation but it seems that there is a speaker in the center also.
I use Qobuz for streaming through Roon. I also use Spotify for making playlists. A couple friends and I make ongoing collaborative playlists there. I convert them to Qobuz using an internet site called “soundiiz”. That way I can listen in higher resolution.
I have a playlist that I like to listen to at home that I’ve been checking out on the Ascend Towers because I’m pretty familiar with the tracks and most of them have nice quality sound. Some of them I’ve discovered on my own and some I’ve found through people’s comments and recommendations on various forums. So I’ll share the playlist here. Maybe you all with find something you really like:

What am I listening to now? Something I’m very familiar with. I’m about to listen to the first few tracks from Genesis - Lamb Lies Down.
