What speakers for 10k?

Zd542, yeah check out Vapor's website, he just throws em together. Wink.
I know Vapor spent more than three or four years designing the Cirrus.
I would think Ryan voices all the speakers, changes the crossovers, and makes sure that any product has outstanding sound quality before it leaves the shop.

Jughead, why not start bidding on the Cirrus here? You may get a great deal.

The Crescendos that are listed for sale on this site would be a steal and it's a fantastic loudspeaker...

Ask anybody with a pair of Joules how they sound. He does in fact use a different crossover and tweeter in that application when he incorporates the transmission line cabinet. Other differences as well but I would leave the details up to Ryan to explain. He can also modify existing Cirrus or Breeze and keep the tweeter the same. He recently did this to a pair of Cirrus for a customer with great success.

That's why I said "Breeze based Joules". I have discussed upgrading my Breeze like this with Ryan and really hope to do so in the future.

You also need to check out NOLA KO's which I believe list right at your $10k price. As much as I admire Vapor's philosophy and approach, unless your priority is the deepest bass the NOLA's beat any Vapor model IMO. Of course, like two others here, if I were you I'd grab the used AZ Crescendos offered for $7500 without a second thought.
