What speakers for 10k?

Yeah it never seems to end does it? my wife just shakes her head and says I thought you were done buying speakers 5 sets ago? I've had a parade of speakers come threw my house in the past 20yrs, and I'm sure its not going to end anytime soon. anyone interested in my stiff breeze? I'm sure I'll be looking to sell those in the next 6 months or year(lol).

I'm sure you'll be happy. Ryan is a big NIN fan and the Vapors do really well with your kind of music.

No experience with Vapor, but dude if it were me. I would get the PMC IB2is for sale here on Audiogon for $5K. Just simply outstanding speakers.

Buy the Nimbus (or something in that general price) now and get off the upgrade train, if not permanently, for at least a longer period of time. The Stiff Breeze is another $2,500 speaker, and while it may be a great $2,500 speaker (I have not heard it), it is not the answer to "What speaker for $10k?"

If you want to make a significant leap forward in the quality of your sound reproduction you can't make it taking small steps. Just my experience, FWIW.

Best of luck in your search.
