Congrats! I have always loved the look of Salk speakers but unless I win Mega Millions on Friday they will always be out of my price range. I bet they sound wonderful with your gear. I keep talking about buying a tube amp, but there always seems to be some need more pressing need for my family. You have a great looking setup.

Thanks, David and Dana. And thank you to everyone else for the nice comments.
You know, I'm still pinching myself. Coming home after work and being able to sit and listen to music makes all the stress kinda melt away.

I've been listening to the Best of the Kazoo SACD compilation for months now.

Congrats Sean, Salk's are on my short list for my next set of speakers should I ever have a chance to buy another set.

Thanks, Jason. They've been on my shortlist for years and an opportunity came up to get a good deal on them and I couldn't pass it up.
The craftsmanship in the cabinets alone is top notch.

Sean, considering we would ALL like to hear them, and yet we're unlikely to travel to your place to see them (what, with the temps soon to be in the upper 200s), why don't you package them up and ship 'em off to the first person for a week's audition? Then, that person can ship them back to you, and you can re-ship it to the next person...and so on, and so on and so on...

LOL! Excellent idea, Mark!
I will ship them out today. What can go wrong?

Plus, they'll all be broken (in, like a baseball mitt) when you get them back so they should sound better than EVER!
