Am I right for this forum?
I play cello and guitar; my wife plays piano, my daughter piano and violin. We play those instruments in the same room occupied by my main audio system, and so I can attest to the "fidelity" of that system’s reproduction. ^This. Given your tra...

For the love of...kits?
@curiousjim, Musical Concepts still designs sota driver boards for Haflers and Adcom. John  recently developed a board for the B&K's as well.  And if you're still attached to your Dynaco gear, check out Erhard Audio for his kits... https://... 
Flexible Power Cords
I use "molded" cords from Furutech (#FP-320 Ag) or Oyaide (Axis-303) for everything but amps. They are flexible, made with proprietary, high quality materials and have air tight construction.  Around $120-150 each.

Yes, Congrats. Interested in your thoughts as well. Always enthused by their high efficiency design and wide band driver use. These 100's are not cheap however. I would also like to hear (read) how they compare with Tektons or even other $10k + sp... 
Klipsch Heresy IV vs. The World!
Omega's should be on your list for sure, different sound albeit. I am a staunch supporter of small business. The Pi recommendation is really in your wheel house. Also similar, Audiokinesis has some offerings that you may like. Again the designer, ... 
Klipsch Heresy IV vs. The World!
Well I didn't get in before you pulled the trigger.   If the Devore's don't stick around... I would try Wayne Parham at Pi Speakers in Bella Vista, Arizona. He has a few models that fit your request. They are custom made and you have options on ... 
The Snob Appeal Premium
^ A big +1 to the Canadian made Brystons.

2023 AXPONA Show Report
^ I see where the new Ellipticor series drivers have an elliptical voice coil and magnet gap! Along with their proprietary magnet structure, these should be outstanding. However, it's going to take a bit to get used to the elliptical dust cover. ...
