OOOOOOhhhhhhhhhhhh Serge is the winner!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats!!!!!!!
  Here's a stock pic....I'll try and take some pics tomorrow but if all goes well pending close inspection will have to head back to Atlanta quickly. They're in a premium finish as well, but I'll tell the story of how this came about when I get home. They're on the short list of the top 5 to 10 speakers ever designed regardless of price. Serge, gimme a couple of days to get settled and then PM me your address and the CD/SACD of your choice!

Congratulations! Have a friend who owned these and said they were the best he ever owned. Only thing he was willing to consider an upgrade was the Saga that he was able to get his hands on recently...he still talks about these and calls them A+++ speakers.

Excellent choice Buck!
This has been a fun thread. You should definitely go out and buy something else.

Congratulations! I should have known... Seems Most people don't like to change speaker brands as much as simply going up the line.
