Teajay,
I see some adds where you can trade up the X600's to X600.5's for $6K. This is the upgrade I was writting about. I believe Audio-Video Logic has this deal. I would think for $6K the improvement should be as significant as the price difference. It would then be a $12K venture. Still a savings off retail. I've heard nothing but great things about the Omicron. For the most part I've heard all good things about the X600's with a couple of folks saying they were a bit dry. I would think source, cabling and speakers might make a huge differnce in that opinion. I know Classe's sound. I have a CA-201. Great little amp. Warm and and liquid, nice base extension. Can't help but think the Omicron will sound great. Have you ever found the X600's to be dry? BTW, I'll look at the Accoustic Zen review and cables - thanks.
