2023 AXPONA Show Report
@mgrif104  They had they Atria ii when I went last year too. They sounded pretty good in the small room. Would love to hear the Lyra even though I could never afford them. Thanks for the feedback !   
Is it possible for a high end manufacturer to overprice their goods?

2023 AXPONA Show Report
@mgrif104  What Rockport model did they have at the show this year ?   
Borresen X3 at Axpona

Accurate and revealing subwoofer
@khashmi  I think the S510 would be fine in your room. 2 would help eliminate any room modes. Happy listening !

Best Floorstanding Speakers Buyers Guide 2023 !
No Rockport speakers in this buyers guide?! Blasphemous !   
Is a home theater even worth it or doable?

Does anybody pay a pro to dial their system in?
@thomastrouble  It definitely wouldn’t hurt to consult a professional acoustician. Small rooms are difficult but can be made to sound great. Jeff at hdacoustics is very good with small rooms. He was recommended to me by Duke LeJeune of audio kine... 
Making speakers “disappear”…..
@thomastrouble  As @newbee suggested a little bit more distance to listening position might work better. I’ve read (and this works for me) the distance between tweeters is 1 and the distance from tweeters to ear is 1.2. Your room will be a big fa...

Wish I was going to Axpona to hear them. 45k puts them in competition  with my Avior ii speakers. I enjoy comparing similar priced speakers. Have fun everyone at Axpona !   
Adding a Dac and Stresmer
@silverfoxvtx1800  I recommend getting the new blue sound node with an external LPS and use it only as a  streamer. It is quite good and the BluOS app is really good too. You will then have more money to put towards a better DAC. Good luck!
