WP 7 or Totem Wind or AZ Crescendo or ????

For what it's worth, I thought the Crescendo's sounded absolutely gorgeous at RMAF. Many speakers can sound dynamic and punchy, but not too many sound as glorious as this one.

Never heard Adagio, but considering the price difference, I wouldnt be surprised if Adagio couldnt hold a candle to Crescendo. They are a match made in heaven with tube electronics, for super clear, "liquid" presentation that also has a realistic soundstage, where you are not looking down at the performance, which is the case with a lot of speakers (I understand room has a lot to do with it).
