    It's a pretty simple passive crossover. Still needs break in but sounds pretty damn good to these ears. I do still have the Behringer that can go with them. I'll throw it in for a good price.

    Ok people. Have my eyes on a different prize. Would like a quick sale with the passive x'over. I still have the Behringer, too.

    Damn I need these to finally start putting together my 2 ch room. I'm right down the road too... but I've been struggling to get to the next step....but I do see Emerald Physics in my future. The time is not now but coming. I can't wait to listen to their room again in April at AXPONA.

    Great price to performance here! One has to love the 6moons review where he said these had the detail of his $17,979 Tidal Audio Piano Ref speakers. Crazy Good!

    GLWTS!

    The tires are being kicked by a couple folk but nothing solid. I'd really like to move these and try to keep them in the family. Will consider offers.

    Chicago is only 3 hours from my house.... and I'm sure Dave could meet in Crown Point, IN....

    And I'm sure you could convince with very little effort a Polkie in Brownsburg to go with you to get them in his Murano.....

    That sounds like a plan. But I already own a set of CS2p....
    Dammit, Dave was for the killer deal someone is getting on a great set of speakers.
    Somebody buy these!

    I moved my stuff around a few times in hopes of getting the wideness of them to fit but no luck.

    Not mad at you, buddy. Just the dopes here that won't buy your speakers.
    They do need a good size room to work in.

    Yeah, I'm the dope! I need to figure this out.

    Silly Me, I'm thinking about these for my living room with no stereo currently in it. Its not the best in terms of distance from the back wall which has windows. I would have to pull them out just for listening and push them to the wall when not in use.

    However, the better idea would be my family room which is much better suited to get them 3ft from the back wall. Plus there are no issues with the Mrs. installing wall treatments, etc. Its would still be a stretch ...they might stick out too far. I will need to mock it up tonight. The plus is that these have the dynamics for movies also and I could build a DIY center using smaller pro drivers.

    Do I really want to abandon my Statement II build? The parts alone are about $1600 before wood and finishing. Hummm.....

    I'm going to take some measurements later tonight.....
