| Spatial Audio Triode Master Upgrade -- any impressions? The X2s are wonderful. Over 200 hours on them, and they are the easiest speakers to listen to I have ever experienced. You just never get tired of listening. Deep, tight bass, instruments and voices feel like they're in the room. No buyer's re... | |
| Best high-efficiency speaker under 10K My new Spatial Audio X2s are just getting broken-in. Lovely. The easiest-listening speakers I have ever experienced. | |
| Spatial X2s arrive next Thursday On Mr. Shaw's recommendation, I installed the spikes and floor protectors on my wood floor. Yup. Good idea. Sound improved. Bass clearer and tighter.They continue to break in, but my overall impression is that they are incredibly easy to liste... | |
| What is your favorite budget audio component? PS Audio Sprout. | |

| Spatial Audio Triode Master Upgrade -- any impressions? I drooled over the M3 Triode Masters for a long time. Then they introduced the X2s. I decided I deserved the X2s and ordered a pair. They should arrive in a couple weeks.Or more to the point: I wondered, if I bought the M3s, whether I would re... | |
