In reply to:

And I have owned or had for many weeks in my living room numerous box speakers..in the ballpark of 12 models in the last 14 years.


Does this mean you are searching for perfection Saturn?
Or is it that you just like to have all sorts of speakers just for fun and can never really settle on one sound for long?
I've got a bit of that itch myself. I have 2 main pairs of speakers of different brands and am already looking at a 3rd brand for some other system if i ever have another room in which to build another system.
