Thanks a lot everyone. I appreciate you all helping me think through this. @russ69, yes the shop is Black Ice HQ in Maryland. I live about 30 minutes from them. I would just drive it up there and hand it to Jerred. I have always had very positive...

@celtic66 Thanks a lot.  Agreed, less than ideal.  But, hey, at least this room/cave is all mine.  The family avoids it like the plague!

@steve59:  Thanks.  I will have a look at the Meridians. @celtic66: Thanks.  I hear you on proper stands, room treatments etc.  But I am far from that nirvana in this room at this point, unfortunately. So, the speakers are sitting on Elfa tall... 
KT 170
Hi everyone, just curious if anyone is running the KT170s and their impressions here in 2024.  I have been running them since March 2022 on my Black Ice F35 integrated amp, and I am happy with them.  I keep the KT150s as backup, though I never rea...

First Tube amp suggestions
Hi tritube,  just curious what you ended up doing.   I was in your position 2 years ago and can empathize.  The good folks here on Audiogon also provided me great advice like they have above here.  Black Ice Audio came up as something for me to l... 
Magic returns in seldom used bookshelves?
Hi menosavy, It has been a little over a year now.  Any update on this?  I own a pair of the Ascend Sierra 2EX, and they are currently in a box as I bought a pair of ATC SCM11 v2. I am about to swap out with the Ascends to see how they interact w...
