Agreed. I put a pair of black JC-1's into my system four months ago to drive my new Legacy Whisper XD's. They're stacked one on top of the other, and even in that configuration they look (and, obviously, sound) great.
I've got a custom-made rack on order from Billy Bags. When it arrives, I'll swap out the JC-1's and put my McIntosh MC-2000 back in the system to see how it sounds.
