Thanks for the update. Believe it or not I'm still in the market for stands. I honestly had forgotten about the Lovan stands you have. I hope they make them in a 24" version.

Also great to see Blue Jeans cables mixed in with your gear. I've always enjoyed them in my home theater set-up. I also liked their digital coax cable from my transport to various DACs I've had in the past.

Nice set-up Jim

Do you still use those 18" Lovan Jazz stands? What are your thoughts on them? I'm thinking about using them on a pair of KEF Q300 bookshelf speakers. They are a bit big for the stands I have currently.

Thanks
