Hello from Ireland
« on: 22 Jun 2021, 10:22 pm »
Hi all, newbie on here sayin' hello. An audiophile since i was a teenager, now retiring and going to make a pair of GR Research X-Statiks. I only ordered the kit yesterday so may take a while to cross the Atlantic. As an industrial designer I'm  giving the outside a new look to blend better with my house.  would you go black or red ???

Cheers & Welcome to AC Quive   :thumb:   I'd think the color selection would also be dependent on the decor, keep us posted.

Welcome to AC!

If you’re interested in DIY cables, I’d highly suggest checking out GR Research’ 24 or 16 strand cable. I haven’t heard them personally (just got the kit yesterday). But the components are top notch for sure!

Here’s a great thread on them:

Good luck with your journey! :thumb:

Welcome! If it’ll blend with your decor, that red looks quite good 👍
