New Kii Three/BXT speakers. Just to torment Al 
The photo paints a different picture. I understood the point of Kii was minimalism without sacrifice, 
He is NOT going to like them, give it time. 
I see now, thank you. Those are frickinā impressive looking speakers. Obviously you likeāem which is a good thing.
Interested to hear Alās opinion.
Thanks for sharing.
āJA
EDIT: You and Al and most of the guys are so far ahead equipment wise. But not just there because enjoyment follows.
I should have asked earlier, these yours? I assumed they were a web page download. Nice speakers. Iāve yet to hear them, but AL certainly has/had a high opinion of them. Look forward to your thoughts. Should I ultimately downsize they are on the list as are the Martinas.
I heard the story about the missing pieces. Sad. How is your early listening experience?
Yours and mine arrived at Seanās at the same time. Mine shipped from Sean to me today. My hope is when mine arrive Bacch can be left behind. I believe all Kii speakers are that good
Sean started out using Shunyata Omega power cables but found he preferred the stock power cables. I love that result!
It all worked out, Sean had to make a second Philadelphia - DC round trip, which sucked.
These speakers are revelatory. Listening to the music rather than the room. Sean spent some time with REW and set up some filters. Bass is now my b.
They donāt sound pretty, they sound proper, and very vivid. A very different sound than what I am accustomed to.
Sean really likes the stock power cords. He now has my DAC and amp with him, so Iām trying their Inakustik power cords on the speakers.
He brought some Furutech Ethernet cables along, said he thought they were better than the Shunyatas that he started with. So, thatās what Iām listening to,
You are going to have so much fun.
I would use Inakustik cables in a heartbeat.
I am honored that you chose to do this! And you beat me to it! Congrats!
I was thinking white but chickened out.
Are those Auva 100s underneath? $1500+ for eight. Sigh.
Is the device on the upper left a CD transport?
Heh. The white definitely pops. I hope I donāt get sick of it.
Yes, Auva 100s. They are incredibly heavy and can easily mash a clumsy finger. Iāve used other Stack footers on electronics and liked them, so I again followed Shaunās lead on the 100s.
Credit card bill next month is going to be immense. But, funds should eventually flow back. Iāll definitely break even,
That is a CEC TLO 3 cd transport..running into the Kii Control s/pdif.
I have concrete, with a thick pad, and thick carpet. When I order my Auva 100 footers I will order the 25mm spikes. Do you have any thoughts on spikes?
My setup is identical, concrete, wood, pad, thick carpet. We did not install the spikes, With the combined weight of the speakers and footers Iām hoping that the whole assembly is grounded to the floor sufficienntly.
When you order the Auvas specify that the adapters should be M8-1.0
Congradulations, I am greatly enjoying reading about your new Kiis. I am contemplating the Kii 7s, I want the smaller size and expense. If anyone interested, Sean has a pair ready for immediate delivery.
words I never thought Iās see associated with your moniker, AI hack possibly? Enjoy your Kii3ās. Iāll be off the net for a bit, vacationing in the Rockies.
The AUVA 100s were my last upgrade. They replaced AUVA 70s on my Fyne F703SPs for a nice bump in clarity and focus.
If anyone is interested in my 70s, lemme knowā¦
What about using the 70s under your rack?
@flowcharts Thatās an excellent idea, and I understand that folks are beginning to do just that, however I lack a rack. My gear sits on individual 2" cast acrylic slabs on the floor with Stack AUVA EQs between slab and componentā¦
While on vacation, I ordered a set of SRA Takshaka jumpers to match with my main bi-wired pair. They have a sale going on and Iām a sucker for sales. I was planning to get them even without the sale, good timing.
The jumpers will compete with AQ Dragons, and I will be thrilled if they sound better. One more day before flying back with 50 lbs of extra weights (luggage and us)
Could just be the view angle/lens but seems the speaker->chair distance is considerably shorter than speaker<->speaker which might play badly with the sound stage.
