All I Wanted To Do Was Listen To Music

Jsmith- If you are invited to listen to someone's system and finish the 1st song I feel like the host is waiting for some sort of an expression of your impressions. Maybe they aren't but I always am.  So regardless of whether they ask  or not ... 
Suggest your most desired MSRP $1,500-$3,000 Stand Mount for a Shootout.
Disc- We used the LSA 10s in our 2019 Speakerfest. They were excellent and the only contender that was sold at the show to a board member  who kept them until he bought a pair of Joseph Pulsars. Pretty high praise. But we won't repeat it again ...

Thanks for all the input. To respond to last questions:   Amps: We have access to some decent integrated amps.  Pass Labs INT25,Leben 600, ARC I-50, Luxman 509. Dan D'Agostino was generous enough to loan us an Amp last time. Perhaps we can borro...

VPI is named after the Pope don't you know! Very Pope Ish      
China built tube amps
The new ARC I-50 made in MN for $5k is getting some action.  line Magnetic has US based service but I do not know about  the others. For my money if I bought a tube anything it would have to have US based service.
