Did you see or talk about any NX-Oticas with 8” servos in them making them full range as stand alones?

The speakers with the wood slab sides, is that solid wood or veneered material?

I am curious what is that tall speaker behind that is being upgraded?

The light colored towered speaker looks to be a O Audio Frigg 02. https://www.oaudio.no/frigg02

Steve Guttenberg reviewed it a while back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUqpy9mMHh4&t=567s It's the smaller brother of the Icon 12 that Steve Huff is currently using as his reference.

I heard those at RMAF one year and they were among the best speakers I've ever heard in my life. You are going to be VERY happy with them.

Saving this photo as the standard reply to the FAQ "why do the top high-end loudspeakers cost so much?"

Big add to the costing equation is crating sufficient to keep items safe and then add motor freight charges.
