Jason,
Congratulations on your new speakers. They are stunningly beautiful! Will look forward to hearing your listening impressions when they are broken in.
Didn't you just get Cremona M Auditors? What did you do with them?

Thank you! My dealer was good enough to take them back and allowed me to trade up. :-)

Great looking speakers! I know that I still am very impressed by the craftsmanship everytime I take the covers off of mine.

Jason...congrats on the O2s So how do they sound with the Ref 110? I know you were looking for SS suggestions because you were worried about the 110s ability to drive them, especially in the bass. My guess is the 110s are doing just fine but looking forward to hear your thoughts on the combo...congrats again!

It is a little early to tell. I placed my order today for a BAT VK-250SE that should arrive on Tuesday. The O2's only have about 12 hours on them at this point, and I have only tried the 8 ohm taps so far. The bass is a little loose on heavier material. Guessing a decent solid stater will remedy that, but we'll see. Break in will likely help this a bit too.
