This is a great article written by Steven Stone. Everyone go check it out.

Steven is having some real fun with the X-Series speakers.

This whole website looks like a good one to put on your list of sites to follow. There are a lot of good articles to read.

Steven also mentioned us in this article about value: http://audiophilereview.com/audiophile-news/its-all-about-value.html

Thanks Steven!

I have the X-Omni's and I think he has them raised too high for surrounds. I would think he would want to be more on-axis with the tweeter.

You should tell Steven that Skiing Ninja is discontinuing the Ninja mods for the X-Omni. He should get them now and enjoy them all summer.  :wink:

Actually the tweeters are only slightly above ear height. Since the picture was taken I've moved the speakers toa  slightly wider position and installed a pair of Mirage OMD5 speakers as rear surrounds. And yes, I will give Skiing Ninja a call...

Hi Steven,

I rode the elavator with you at RMAF a couple years ago. :thumb: In case you missed it, Danny also posted the following a while ago:

Thanks for the heads up.  My buddy just picked up a used pair and when we looked they needed modification.  He is now very Xtatik!

It was a good read indeed.
I have this exact setup minus the ninja upgrades.
Got me thinking again
Thanks gentlemen
