Ron, my first build was a pair of X-LS Encores, bookshelf-size, ported, with the Sonicaps, Mills resistors, & No-rez. They are without a doubt the best sounding speakers I have ever owned. (my experience limited to 901's, 301's, rt-55's, Mach ones, that calibre). Ok, I'm no audiophile. I didn't even measure them to compare them with the MOJO shootout set. I don't have to, I love mine. If you are a measurements guy, I think you can get close to the performance charts posted on the MOJO shootout site. I counseled with Danny and went with all of his recomendations on upgrades, except building the floor standing version (X-SLS), so I gave up a little bottom end. I don't think you can find better sound at this price point. That coupled with your fine cabinets will make a remarkable speaker. The MOJO build of course had point-to-point wiring, no 'board', & ninja-spec soldering, done by The Ninja. G.L.
