    Naw I’m still poking around here and there. Just unfortunately don’t have the time to dedicate to music and audio like I used to. Still always thinking about upgrades in the back of my mind, talking to Derek about rosso’s right now but I really can’t decide what direction I want to go

    He is pointing me towards Elba II’s but I am really thinking I am gonna few years and look at either getting the focal Kanta or maybe Sopras or go with the Volterras if I go the Rosso route. I just don’t like that there is no matching center with Rosso

    I think 2 channel only was the thought process for Rosso. The new little Pienza 2 I thought were really nice as well.
