...and the Outlaw 7100 are back in the system, with the three front channels biamped with six channels of the Butlers. I almost ordered a pair of the new Emotiva XPA-DR3 three-channels-times-450Watts amps, but couldn't quite convince myself that doing that was a good idea, for money ($4K for both) and musical reasons. So my top-of-the-short-list amp is still a pair of the PS Audio BHK 250s, but that won't happen for a good-many months if at all. That MAY be because every time I reinstall the Butlers, I can't hear anything wrong with the sound.
This time they got partnered with new Clear Day speakercable that uses solid-silver conductors. This new set is a special version with six 24g. conductors (= 16-1/4g.) per pole.
Sounds VERY nice. :-)
