Right! The Holy Grail.

Their peronsality changed quite a bit today with the replacement of my Siltech Speaker Cable LS-110 G5 with Nordost Valhalla. The light really starts to shine from the heaven's with these cables running the X-2's. The Siltech sounds closed in/ restricted in comparison.

Amazing setup, particularly the speakers. Congratulations.

What's the purpose of the 2 tape machines (one of them seems to be blocking the TV / monitor from the listening chair)?

Thanks, Pedro
