I have been living with my Alexandria X2 Series 2s for a couple of months now and can report that they cannot be speakers. These things are scary -- so different from any other speakers that I don't think they really qualify. So now when my friends say "You spent how much on speakers!!!" I say no, I didn't.

Congrats I've only heard them once, but found the experience wonderful. What speakers did you have, previously, and what do you have them paired with? My entry into the Wilson club is due to arrive any day, but I'll be a much junior member to you!

By the way...

Robert...I am going to guess from the OP's sign in name that he is driving the X2s with Boulder 2060 amps (BA2060)
