I can already hear Charles “The SE17’s will accept three Monoblocks each”


The XRT2.1k has 3 sets of binding posts. [emoji41][emoji41][emoji41]
I know you have been there, done that with McIntosh BUT your XRT2k are in dedicated theater environments. [emoji41][emoji41][emoji41]

They are gorgeous speakers, IMO. Wonder how they would sound with a slew of A-250 Class A monoblocks. I betcha the smaller woofers relative to the xrt2k will perform on a similar playing field allowing for technological/cabinet refinements. IMG_8480.jpg
