Trust me, it's on my mind. For the here and now, I've exhausted my discretionary income! In the meantime, at least the KPE REF will be playing through a tube preamp and power amp.
The REF 5SE just arrived tonight and I have it unpacked and installed. That's 2/3 of my upgrade which for me is gigantic. Now if those Nola KOs would only show up!
I was told to be patient when I ordered my Nola KO speakers. I have really been trying hard to be patient, but I was born without patience and it has gotten worse since I have grown older. I'm now at -0 for patience so it's really hard for me. However, I'm confident they will be worth the wait.
