Default Alexx loudspeakers now installed

I have recently gone through a major upgrade to my system. I have traded in my Maxx3's and the Alexxes are playing in my system. I also traded in my Mac 601 and upgraded to a 1.25KW for my Thor. In addition I added some new interconnects and power cord and Mac D1100. I will try to post some pics soon. I'm a little pressed for time but just to say it the Alexx is from top to bottom by far the best sounding speaker I've had in my system. And it is built like a tank. The speakers exude quality and they sound as good as they look.
