Yes, I'm hoping to get my 2 channel Kratos amp very soon. My setup now is not good at all. 
How good are recievers these days?
No processing is the way of the future. DSD tubes and straight digital. 
how much did you spend on rear surround speakers?
I can't even explain the difference I heard from the Axioms to the Casta's. Well worth the money spent. If your room is medium to large. Mine is 13 x 19 x 8. This spring/summer it will be 22 x 20 x 8. These surround speakers fill your surround exp...

I think what makes them unique is the caps and custom power supply. Which makes a huge difference in any component if the parts are quality and how they are wired/configured. Then as a whole could create amazing quality, lowest distortion, higher ...

Audience Adept Mod
Well, I'm sure my audience 6tts(latest edition) has at least a few hundreds hours on it now and all I can say is this Audience conditioner is simply stunning. Increased definition, clarity, solid grip, focus. The palpability of the music is just a... 
Audience Adept Mod
Received my 6tss full blown latest version and out of the box noticed an extremely tight grip on everything. Blacker background, isolation of vocals and instruments, everything is more focussed. As days go on I will post with more hours on the aud...
