I just happen to have the IMF's and the 76a in the house, what a luscious sounding pair, I don't know if its going to get old after a bit, but the depth is greater and the detail is almost on a par with my Dialogues. And bass, what a fat woolly and really kinda deep bass tubes and transmission lines can provide. State of the art? Nah. Hell of a lot of fun? Oh yeah. Wish I had a decent table at the moment but I don't.
