Your thoughts on best audiophile speakers in $10,000 neighborhood?
Borresen X2s are sublime and well under $10K,

gandalf: Congrats! Mine also sounded bright and compressed at first but they will improve considerably upon settling in. At least my X2s in my room had to toe them in quite a bit to get imaging locked in. Spent a bit of time with positioning but n... 
Will accidental max volume damage a speaker?
Think of it as you have "broken" them in even more.  😉

I'd say just go for the X6 and be happy.  If you're only banking on getting Z5, O2 in the used market how often do they come up for sale?  You might be waiting forever.  Get the X6 now which you can afford and if the others do come up snag em and ...

@gandalf usually I would guess the mid model is the sweet spot.  Look forward to hearing what you think after you've had some time with burn in.

Thanks!  I just got my set and they are improving more and more but still a ways to 400hrs.  Glad to hear they just need more time.  May look into the Q45T as well.

@jerrybj Thanks for the link.  Looks like my current SMPS is 12v 5amp.  Will this be too low on max current at 4amps or is sufficient?

Congrats on the X1s gents!  Loving my X2s.  Originally wanted white X2s but they we're on back order until end of March and couldn't wait and got the piano black instead.  Turns out actually now glad I got the black ones as these speakers just dis... 
Recommended RCA sub-woofer cable? Thank you.
@soix it's a public forum and you can't always expect people to divulge even the most "basic" as you say information all the time.  It's just how it is.  So are you going to police folks that don't then?  That seems more like a waste of time to me... 
Recommended RCA sub-woofer cable? Thank you.
@soix instead why not offer recommendations in various budgets instead of reprimanding?  You sound like an old grumpy.

@analoguefan How's the Zero Zone LPS going so far?  Does it get hot to the touch?  I'm interested in getting one for my streamer as well since the price looks reasonable.  Can you link which model you got?  
AE SP12 or Zavfino Nova OCC?
@mclinnguy Their only standard length is 2.5 meters which can be returned.  Anything else is custom ordered and is non-refundable.  This would be my only critique for an otherwise pleasant customer service experience.  It would be nice for them to... 
AE SP12 or Zavfino Nova OCC?
Received the custom ordered Prima OCC a couple of days ago. The customer service from Ray L in the US is excellent. The cables exude quality in the way they look and feel. Very well built and thick as the 9AWG specs they are.  The beautiful prese...
