What is your speaker ownership history since 1995?
@roxy54 Yes, the Impulse H1's are indeed one very fine never to be sold loudspeaker and are the best horn speaker I have heard to date. Same goes for the Oris 150's to a slightly lesser degree than the 1's. The Klipschorn is not as good as the H1'...

Best budget integrated choices
A Quad Vena? around $400 used. I have one (two, actually) and they sound very good for the modest outlay. 
Looking to build a system for under $5k

One could pay a shed load more of the green paper and get (musically) a whole lot less. I failed to mention the pairing of Sotm gear running with the W5's. It was a completely random pairing, and I think they paired very well together.

They maybe small in stature, and price lol, but they, when heard no way portrait the traits of a small speaker, I know someone will harp on about size, graphs, the laws of physics etc blah blah blah......., but they are the consummate bargain for ...

Charles, I heard the Raidho 2's at the show? they were big speakers anyway at the show, whilst I liked their sound and stayed for a whole song, the ahem W5's were musically better, in that the Instruments and vocals sounded more real with an uncan...

Hi Charles, I have not read the 6moon review, but I will for sure. I think darts are being thrown without a dart board in sight with regards to some posts. It is good to have a lively debate on a subject closer to our hearts rather than our ears. ...
