And, of course, an ideal tasting would be here, locally...

PS - I pulled the trigger on the Vosne Romanee earlier. A little nuts, but still, I can't wait.

Congrats on the VR! No doubt your will love it, it's a beauty.
I find it interesting the way fellow Shindo based individuals assemble their systems. Some spend way more on their Shindo pre's in relation to their speakers. Your VR's capability with be fully fleshed out with the O96's, however the resolving power of the Shindo Petite Latour would likely be even higher. The Petite Latour is a rather large speaker and can't fit into some environments. What was your logic for going with the O96's over Shindo based speakers?
