Girlfriends and wifes, how do YOU cope?
My wife would rather listen to nails on a chalkboard than most king crimson. Still working on that one....On the flip side she took right to the moody blues when we met. That might have been a deal breaker. 😿 
What speakers for 10k?
The thing is unless your room is exceptionally large the world is your oyster for speakers with 10k to spend. Not to say there are not products that cost more but for most people's home applications the additional utility that might be present wit... 
What speakers for 10k?
I've never heard any vapors so can't say. They seem like a very nice product. No idea how many pair have been made and out there but I think they have only been around a few years which might help account for scarcity used. Seems like a solid prod...

Probably not unless played back with a high fidelity wire or two. Only then could it sound good. That's all that matters. 😏 
Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga?...Gag Me?

Cartridges and old man
Now that was funny! 😹👏👏👏 
My Triton Ones are being delivered to me tomorrow
Chinese may not have many rights still but at least some have jobs and others get nice affordable speakers. I look at it as progress. Glass half full not empty. Stupid threads on websites should not be taken too seriously.

Nice. Let us know when they stop sounding good. At least that will be some news. You sound like a freakin broken record. Can't you just enjoy your system like everyone else and stop telling us about it? Or at least tell us about something else con...
