Lol. Thank You John.

Not sure if this was an upgrade or not. I really liked my Emotiva Airmotiv 5 powered monitors but they sound quite different from how these are. None of the air and strong imaging that I was expecting based on those and the Stealth 8's I'd heard before. I'm thinking I should have just upgraded the crossovers in the 11TL's instead.

Ok. I’m tired of the Niagara sitting out. Time for what looks like a simple move, but it’s not.
Moving everything around inside the cabinet to fit all gear. The Auralic will go on top as it’s beautiful and needs to be showcased.
Before pics, after to come later.

Get yourself some grating, nylon bushings (available in various diameters and lengths) and use zip ties to secure. You can even trim cables to exact length if desired.
You can also use thin wall plastic pipe (not schedule 40), slit it if you have to, use 45 and 90 degree fittings (you can slit them and re-glue together) and cover with techflex.
Make yourself necessary to someone. Ralph Waldo Emerson
