Speakers to consider around 5k used?
Ohm Walsh 3000 for 4 grand NEW. You will probably have to wait six months though but all good things to those who wait. 
Michael Fremer's system
Well I’m glad that he pointed out that the overpriced loudspeakers are in fact his and not loaners. 
I need a good looking and good sounding speaker ....
Ohm Walsh 2000, oak or cherry. You can thank me later. 
Tidal through Firestick through Oppo 205
I had title Tidal through the fire stick on my oppo 103 and also tried the tidal app that is directly on the 103 couldn’t tell the difference. But it’s 16/48 max thru the stick. I ended up 86ing Tidal because it was too buggy, a terrible selection... 
Do speaker wires matter
Yeah powering those behemoths with 26 watts would be akin to pushing the Titanic with a pair of Evinrudes. I had a pair of M5s and drove it with the Acurus A250-terrific match, and using original monster cable. 
Review: PSB Stratus Gold Speaker
Blueranger, in an earlier post you said the Golds had a "slight edge", even after the Ohms had been upgraded. So which is it? 
are 4000$ /pr speakers today better than $4000/pr speakers from mid to late 1990's?
No. $4000 speakers from a quarter century ago would be about seven grand today. 
Does any one have a link to Playboys stereo systems of the rich and famous?
