jfray.......You have to be careful. Those mouse clicks can get you in trouble quick.

I think you made the correct choice.

jfray...congrats on the Futuras Stunning speakers. One speaker cable suggestion that are fairly priced and deliver above their price point are the Kimber 8TC speaker cables. Their Hero interconnects are also good value.

Congratulations jfray

I had the pleasure of unpacking your speakers with HK at his house, enjoying them for a while, and then re-packing them

I am very happy that they stayed within the group and you are so over the moon about them.

Enjoy them for many years to come
