... Sorry...but I'm sitting here chuckling like a kid...you mean you have to put it together?

It just reminded me of the countless hours dads have spent putting XMAS toys together for their kids... With very illiterate instruction booklets ... I'm sure that will not happen in this case...

Thanks Serge:
I usually do a big upgrade to my system at the end of the year. This year, I did only a small upgrade and it was in the middle of the year. Thanks for the vicarious year end gift.
Enjoy the speakers. They are truly a work of art.
Randy

Finally! The amps are warming up and the speakers are singing. I'm taking a little break with a nice cup of cappuccino and will come back down to give them a more serious listen.

Beautiful I love the color

So with these new beauties, do you think they may be too much for the wonderful Mezzo, perhaps a move to the Polaris could be in order?

Here is a little iPhone video to get a better visual. The speakers are gorgeous and they already sound a bit more relaxed and forgiving in the upper mids and up top. This song used to sound a bit cooler in the vocals. I'm already liking what I am hearing and it's only been 10 minutes of playing.
