Tim would you go for 4x rel 812, swarm or dual rs2 / s7012?

@b_limo  which rel are you using?@millercarbon so you would do rel 6 pack 812s over say dual JTR RS2 or S7201 ?

Posted an update on my original impressions but to summarize here: Moving my listening position in closer was a big step up in everything, soundstage, microdetail, imaging. But an even more massive difference, un-toeing the speakers. This resulted... 
Lumin U1 vs Lumin U1 mini + sbooster?
@tvad  impressive. I wonder if you would get a further gain with a better PSU on the mac mini ?

I think class rating also factors in price and value. Part of the reason ls50 is in class a is because it's a great value and probably better than most speakers in its price category.
