I am finally getting some quality time in with the two channel setup and am awestruck by the glorious sound coming from my amps and the big Maggie's. I have never had bass as DEEP, accurate and controlled as I am getting right now. The soundstage is as detailed and enveloping as if the artists were in the room with me.
After having these amazing pieces of gear stuffed into a 10x12 padded cell of an apartment, it is simply stunning to experience them in all their resplendent glory. I feel more certain than ever that my search for the bottom of the rabbit-hole is closer now than ever.

No, it is further away. Now you will be doing house upgrades to complement the gear.

Yeah man, you are right about that. I am looking at a Classe CP-500 pre and a nice sacd player to round things out gear-wise. The real fun begins when I start building the audio room.The Gear...

If your crossovers are factory you should definitely consider doing a DIY version of Peter Gunn's. The most significant improvement that I've ever heard from just a crossover.
