Ha, we’re all good. I’m going with the Raidho XT-1s for better or worse. I’ll let you know how it goes and I’ll post some pics when I got em. Thanks for all the help.

Boys, there was one room where I tried it. She claimed it was going to be a guest room (for her mother) and we settled on it being neither and it’s a bathroom/office for my wife who doesn’t work. Just putting the above comments in context.
|
Eh, stereo guys can be trusted. Back to the speakers, Raidho is out, 3-4 months and i gotta pay upfront. Seems a bad option as 3-4 months can be 6-8 quickly in this world. Thoughts now, maybe something used I can flip out of later?
|
I’ll go by house and take a pic of the godforsaken cabinet later. LOL
|
There is a used pair of paradigm persona B’s on eBay for like 3500 bucks, is that crazy?
|
Raidho xt1 could do the trick, they look nice great reviews. Wouldn’t mind finding a pair used.
|
Used Wilson Audio Duette 2?
|
Haha. Well we move from NY to Florida during Covid and had to make some decisions on what we were keeping. All jokes aside, it’s taken 2 years to build this house and we have had bad experiences with storage in the past. ‘She sold” is a bit a stretch, but they are gone and I still have some some hifi stuff I want to get the most out of without wasting money. Thanks for the input. Redoing the cabinetry is not happening, too much wallpaper and BS the designer we hired really F’d me. But I gotta move on.
|
Yea Carp, the good news is we have a GREAT builder. NY guy, hits singles not HRs. He basically took over and fired the designer but some damage was done and we integrated stuff that screwed my audio project. Just don’t have the space, 3 kids lots of crap.
|
|
Ozzy, you arent kidding. 3 kids, moving to new state, wife didnt want to, etc etc. I got what I got. LOL
|
|
Johnk, Ill post a pic of the wall later. Dont think i have the space. One side opens up to pool, other to the front entry, kitchen behind it and a built in w big screen and whatever audio stuff I can jam in there.
|
Hahahahahah!
thank you guys for all the help I need it. I’ll be honest, it basically comes down to a free pass to drink and play golf every Friday-Sunday and she gets to design the house. It’s not as bad as you thin. (We live on a golf course). So I’m not a total P&%sy.
|
Clearthinker, you couldn’t be more dead on. The one we hired we got introduced to randomly, she had great style, but cost us an arm and a leg. Basically ended up firing her after I said I was going to sue her, and we went our separate ways. But the damage was done.
|
As for the get a pair stuff, LOL you guys are funny. If you only knew. All good just need some dope speakers.
|
Im keeping the mac MA352 integrated, the MT5 turntable and an Aurender A10, the rest is up for grabs.
|
Guess 3 of those have rear port and will be an issue
|
Scanning ebay for online used stuff, i see a few eh options to tide me over??
Paradigm Persona B 3700
Kef Ref 1 4250
Alta Audio Celesta FRM-2 9,000
Focal Diablo Utopia Colour Evo 12,500
|
Good price I guess and if I don’t like no damage done
|
OK went w Scansonic MB-1 and if I like em im going to order the Raidho XT-1s. If not I’ll dump and find new idea. Got em 1700 used.
