I saw the entire Grandioso stack at a recent HiFi show here in my world, all still. When I touched it, the person said don't touch them.

Let me erase some, I swore to myself i'd never reach this point.

I sold my house a few months ago and i've moved into a rental in another town. I don't know that i'll be here all that long and the room isn't what I really like for music. It's a few feet narrower than more former room, but it is longer and taller.

I'll probably buy something soon that will work for this room, and then i'll see what the future holds. If I buy the Grandiose D1, I won't have any money for speakers and i'll just look at the stuff.

I did listen to some Magico S5's today that I was impressed by, the price is really going to be right with the new model coming out.

I have to check out the Elipsa SE because it's so user friendly. I owned the original Elipsa and guy who owns the place I was at today said I should give it a listen as he thinks it's a real improvement over the former. He's a dealer for both.

Japanese Electronics love Japanese speakers.



I can't even keep a straight face.

I'm cracking up looking at that picture and reading your post.

I'm glad my house is to small for them, and i'm glad I can't travel at the moment to listen to them.

Ivan.......You should have cropped that photo a little tighter. That's an American made Pass Labs amp encroaching on the view. Just sayin....
