Here is the sapele.

sockpit, that really helps! That look appeals to me! If I'm fortunate enough to go through with my purchase, that is the finish for me!

Nice looking space. Are those fig plants? So tall. Mine won't get over 3-4'.

Thanks! Yeah the plant on the left is a Fiddle-leaf Fig and the other is a rubber plant. I've had them for about 6 or 7 years now and they were both about a foot tall when purchased. Plenty of light in my space and I just water them a couple of times a week.

@bbybaudio That looks like a Primaluna integrated you're running with the XP5's. Which model Primaluna and what are your room dimensions? I'm trying to decide between the M3S and X5, and I would be driving them with a Primaluna Dialog HP (70w/ch) in a 15x19 room, with seating about 9-10 feet from the speakers.

rharden, primaluna dialogue HP premium integrated produced after the cap changeover in late 2017 I believe. I am running Brimars in 4 of 6 tubes in front and Tungsol EL34bs or KT 150s as power tubes. Listening room is 22.5 X 15.5 X 9. Speakers are on the long wall, 3.5 ft from rear wall and 10.5 ft to listening position. Love the X5s. Have not heard M3s but folks seem to love them.

rharden, should mention that I also have diffusers behind listening position that greatly improve sound.

With GR Research subs. Object in back right corner is an audio optimizer, not a cat tree

Sub partially shown behind left X5 is for home theater - placed carefully where cat can stand on it and look at yard, finding objects to kill and bring in.

Nice! Are those from PI Audio? Also! How did you determine what height is best to mount them?

Secondary system that doesn’t get much use due to the location in house.

radarnyc, I purchased from Greg Rael (g.rael@comcast.net). I temporarily mounted panels behind speakers and sent pic to Clayton. He suggested that they be close to the height of the flat panel TV. Greg Rael saw the pic and said height is correct. Used large "Command Velcro strips" to adhere to panels and wall.

Photo of my M5 Sapphires not long after delivery shows just the primary listening area of my odd and volumetrically large room.

Dimensions are 14ft width x 25ft length x 16ft AVG height. (A 45degree ceiling is 12.5ft on right side rising to 19.5ft on the left side).
The studio-style space opens to a dining room and kitchen on the first level, and to the master bedroom - with an even higher ceiling - on the upper level.
All in, it's approximately 8,500 cubic feet.

GIK Acoustics room treatments to quell 2.0 second reverb peak at 74Hz is on order. Oriental rugs placed just in front of the speakers are not shown.
Mandatory Labrador accessory not yet acquired

LOL, I feel bad too that I can’t really enjoy the X2.. I’m in Florida and the AC air handler is about 10’ behind me along with the thermostat location - the fridge is at the front right. The Rogers class A amp gets pretty warm which makes the AC run so to much noise for me - feedback loop along with the wife doing her thing. It’s the previous formal dining room and in the middle of an open plan. My other system is in a much smaller but isolated and treated room. I think I’m going to have to start listing the system for sale unfortunately

If anyone is interested in the gear please PM me for details.

Clayton received mine on 9/8/2020. Still trying to learn them they are 34" from the front wall and sound balanced with good boytom end now. They are breaking in and the sound is night and day better. Got to give these speakers time to break-in and take the time to play with the setup, these are not boxed speakers so you cannot treat them the same.

M3 Turbo S, driven by Cherry Amps.
The pre-amp is from Aric Audio, Turntable is Marantz tt-15s1, the phono stage is Tavish audio, and the cabling is Audio Envy.

Hi Lyndryguru,

Nice system. I have the X5's which are phenomenal and was looking at getting back into vinyl but not wanting to spend too much money as I'm uncertain if I will go all in. How do you like the Marantz? It seems like a good value for the money and comes with a very good cartridge so I had that on my radar.

Thanks
