    Yesterday a twin pallet freight delivery arrived
    As soon as the moving crew brings everything upstairs and Santa Mike shows up to do some tweaking the fun can begin!
    What could it be?

    Just one listen and they know. AG XD’s aren’t your Dad’s old Klipschorns.

    P.S. Magico’s Ultimate Speaker is a horn. What Could It Be?.

    Thank you very much for the kind words.
    This is certainly a direction I never thought of traveling, but honestly I have never experienced anything like Avantgarde.

    The "Boys from Naples" Buddy (Audio 1) and I had deliveries on the same day, but different trucks and from different manufacturers. We will both be getting setup before Christmas. The crates are beyond massive and my big challenge will be incorporating them(crates) into my garage space.
    Guessing mine will probably be easy but you can throw in the Model # if you like.

    OOPs. I had not magnified the pictures. You are absolutely right. I will post in the Magico section as soon as they are set up. Buddy and I will be playing some serious Christmas music on Dec. 25 - maybe a little Bing Crosby or some holiday Elvis.

    Absolutely! I hooked up the laptop and got a great sound in his room for the initial break in period. I’ll be back in a few weeks to fine tune after things have broken in.
