Lazb,
Thanks for the reply. Are your X3's in walnut, Cloud sent me a picture of walnut X3's in production. I've ordered X5 and I'm trying to decide if I want the walnut slabs. $750 for walnut is 10% of the standard price so I guess that's reasonable for the upgrade. I have a pair of SE84UFO25 amps that run in mono now with diy ZF15M speakers. Sounds good but bass and LF is an ongoing challenge. Some days it's good, other days it's not there. I added a diy OB W-15 sub but really never got it working well. My room is a big part of the challenge so I'm working on acoustic panels etc. I'm hoping the X5's will be more forgiving and flexible about placement. Have you heard the X3's with SET or something similar to the UFO25?

I have not heard them at all other than youtube reviews. I ordered the sapele fronts. Currently using DNA2 speakers and they are unbelievable even with one UFO25th amp. I have another amp ordered just for the additional headroom. Expecting delivery around Christmas.(????)The bass is low and large but feel open baffles will be easier to eliminate typical box speaker bass problems in room. 60 day return if unhappy.

I have a few Decware walnut bases that have the same character that you speaker have. They look really nice.

Sounds like you will be loaded for bear! Have you heard anything else about shipping? When you get all of this setup, please post some pics. Should be totally awesome! Best, Geno

They told me they had all the parts for the build at the time I ordered. I later changed the front panels to walnut, was not suppose to delay the delivery..it did. Turns out they are waiting on other parts now!
