Time to say a final few words about my N2X speaker project. I've got close to 100 hours on them as they have been playing almost none stop for about 10 days. I absolutely love them! I'm so glad many of you encouraged me to get this kit instead of doing the ninja mod on my elt 525monitors. I mean, the 525's are sweet little monitors, but, they are not in the same league with the Neo 2x's!!!
I've really enjoyed rediscovering my cd collection. I listen to all kinds of music and it all sounds fantastic on these. I'm always hearing things I've never heard before. As others have said, these speakers sound great right from the git go but really smooth out nicely at around the 75 - 100 hour mark. I love the mids and highs on these. Very smooth and lush but with great clarity and detail. These will definitely keep me happy until the kids are through college...in about 10 years. Heck, I could be happy with these forever!
I'm including a couple of final pics of my little slice of heaven. My Dad and I built the stands the N2X's are on last week. I saw the plan on a website and liked how simple they were to build. Four 2x6's cut to 26" each and some mdf board and your in business. The only tricky part is cutting the 45 degree angle on the top and bottom mdf boards. Makes it look nicer tho. On the bottom shelf of the audio rack is my Little Dot MkIII tubed headphone amp! Makes those headphones really shine when the family is around and I can't listen to my speakers. I put it on the bottom shelf so I can watch those tubes glow while it plays!
Did I mention how much I love these speakers!!!??? LOL!!
