Mike.
I wish I could be there for Saturday. Far too long since I was gobsmacked by that set-up. There are many fine speakers but only two give me speaker envy. Those and the XVX's.

For me it’s going to take a monumental effort to resist 3 x 9” of sealed enclosure. That’s about 80% of S7’s 3 x 10”.
