What speakers for 10k?

Jh,

"I just hope I'm not building them up for a let down."

Maybe you should take a break from thinking about them for a few days.

They are what they are... you'll know soon enough.

Whatever happens, the main thing is that your up for the adventure of discovering something new and exciting... most people here can only dream about doing it.

You actually are... so feel good!

Jughead, I bet they will look good in black and after doing more research on the internet I really think without a doubt you made the better choice.

zd542, actually I was talking about the Chicago Cubs trying to change the subject. no disrespect was intended. Yeah bam wavetouch sent pictures of the speaker in high gloss black which they had to dye the wood to get them that way, and they look much better than the light wood color. with my set up the light color would've stuck out like a sore thumb!

94db Sensitive? If the Wavetouch is 94db sensitive, I'm a Chinese Jet Pilot. Spoiler alert, I'm not a Chinese Jet Pilot.

Why do you guys buy into flat out BS like a small 2-way monitor using a 90-91db sensitive woofer can somehow be 94db sensitive? Baffle step eats up 3db at least, so at best those are 88db sensitive speakers. And 4ohm to boot, so they're only 85db efficient.

There are only 3 possibilities why a manufacturer would list those as 94db sensitive.
- They don't have a clue about design, and don't realize they're wrong
- They think you're too dumb to know it's BS, and choose to knowingly lie
- They have invented an orb of alternate physics which surrounds the speakers, allowing them operate outside the laws which rule all other speakers on the planet

Customers refusing to educate themselves about the product they're purchasing is all that allows manufacturers to get away with these types of decpetion.
