hi all.
name is Tyler and i live in central arkansas. long time audio enthusiast. currently in process of major overhaul of gear. i have a Decware Torii MK5 on order. looking for some sensitive speakers, maybe even single drivers. plan to get my vinyl going again soon. my goal is to get back to the sound i love the most = tubes and vinyl!

my current system:

Roon Nuc+
Chord M-Scaler and DAVE DAC
Ayre AX5-Twenty
Perlisten s5t
Cardas and Kimber wires

Seems you are on the right track with the Torii, so to avoid to loss definition and presence with a crossover and a boxed loudspeaker you would consider the Lii Audio F18 $520/pair, similar to Decware F15 OB.

I’ve been looking at the Lii, wish I had room for Headwreakers! I’ll check out the one you mentioned, thank you.
