Very nice rig! The OII is like a drug, I can't get them off my head and I bet the KGSS make them even more addictive.

Great looking combo tkam. I love the black.

It'd be great to hear some impressions from you, maybe a comparison between speaker rig and OII rig listening experiences.

I can certainly do that at some point but they won't be using the same source.

The OII/member ratio is growing pretty fast on Head-case.

From memory, there's me, tkam, postjack, Duggeh, spritzer, deepak, justin, boomana, kevin gilmore, Elpheas. Anyone else?

Just had to sell mine.

It really hurts to part with them but once I have money again, I'll be looking forward to rejoin the team.
