What speakers for 10k?

I am very happy with my Aerial 7Ts. They fit your budget nicely!

Yeah vapor told me the same thing that the stiff breeze would handle my musical taste better, and offered to send me the breeze to tide me over until they had my stiff breeze ready. sounds like a good deal to me.

Vapor is a custom speaker shop, when you discuss your tastes for music and sound...ryan and pete will make suggestions for upgrades. Vapor, without a doubt, offers sensational speaker for the money. For example, I purchased the lsa statement 1's and terry london did a very nice review of them. that is, until Terry London reviewed the stiff breeze and he pretty much said in his review that Stiff Breeze trumped the lsa's easily.

I'm going to go with the stiff breeze for now and if I feel the need to upgrade I'll take a more serious look at their higher offerings. I think at some point I'll end up with the Nimbus just love the looks of that speaker, and the 15 inch driver in it makes me wonder if I would ever need to run any subs with these speakers? and so far their customer service is excellent, and good customer support is what sold me on Parasound and psa subs. I'm going to place my order Monday, so it'll be at least a month give or take till I get them, but until then id sure like to hear about anyone's experience with vapor.

Spoken like a true audiophile. You may be looking for an end game speaker, but you're not looking to end the game.
