Heard them at Apex Audio here in Denver and they are pretty amazing. Wouldn’t trade my Focal Sopra 2s for them but for the price they rock.

Those cable prices make me realize how “frugal” I am. $40k for the all singing, all dancing Focal’s is one thing, $40k on speaker cables is a whole other one.

I've certainly said this before, but this time (a first in YEARS) it feels like I may actually mean it. In my main rig, I don't think I want to change anything.
After years of upgrades, missteps, debt, and obsession... it feels as if I'm finally ready to stand pat. I've made a conscious choice not to follow every RSS feed anymore, so as to shut down the access to death by overthinking. I contribute to much fewer forums, of course this being one of the ones I've retained. I unsubscribed from YouTube channels, weekly email digests, and turned off notifications on apps.
Basically, I'm no longer as distracted and preoccupied. Could my system sound better? Of course. Does it need to sound different? No. Honestly, it comes close to taking my breath away, as both sonics and room treatments have now made it really fucking enjoyable.
Thank you to everyone that's helped along my journey. I haven't arrived to my final destination necessarily, but definitely an oasis where I'll take an extended stay and protect myself from the unhealthy habits I'd developed a long the way.
Now, back to the music.

Looking at your line-up, I can see how you'd feel that way. Congrats!

Mine had an external power supply with a special cable?

Oh, I understand what you mean now. The cable from the supply unit should be the standard one.

Yea. I have the 5 pin cable to connect the power supply to the unit but no cable to plug the power supply into the wall. I have a Pangea cable that was on my old amp so will swap that into my insight probably and then I can use the power cable from my insight on the khozmo power supply

Nice one Mike!
I have a feeling that this Hattor (sister brand to Khozmo) preamp has a place in my future...
The BIG – Dualmono Preamp
Hattor Audio’s Ultimate Passive Pre is built with a choice of resistors, with cost-no-object attention to detail, and sound quality that rivals anything you choose. With only two resistors in the signal path, you’ll hear every detail without the brightness and distortion of many “revealing”...
