Outlaw Audio RR2160 MKII

Tube dampener questions
Tone Killers not to mention snake oil 
Is this Klipsch upgrade worth it?
I love my Forte IV,  they have a small footprint and huge sound.  I have no plans to replace them anytime soon, or ever maybe.  Lascala if possible,  but that budget would and should include a sub that keep up with them.   The Cornwall is the choi... 
Have you moved away from full range to standmount speakers + subs?

With respect to being unforgiving....  I can live with that . Crap in Crap out....I listened to Neil Young. Cowgirl in the Sand the other night and it was pretty bad through my Forte IV but it is what it is....  fortunately that a lot of great mat... 
Supply chain affecting anyone?
I repair medical equipment,  sourced from everywhere in the world and most vendors are backordered until February or April.   Parts are a problem,  existing stock is gone and no telling when those shelves will be stocked again.   Six month wait fo...
