so i ended up with the Dali Z7s. They are priced competitively in Sweden and work really well with the CXa60 in my opinion: I like the clear sound, separation, forward vocals and 3D soundstage, and the Z7s give a nice, warm and round bubble of music, a wider feeling. And as mentioned, a good bass: listening to Apocaliptica Cello pieces you could feel the strings vibrating in the torso, while Armstrong vocals felt like one might accidentally get some spit on the face! So present... And they look awesome in white, nice finish, with the copper bronze colored mids, looks really nice, not just black and white. Got them for 7900SEK, with a potential Bfriday rebate at Hifi Klubben in Sweden. Awesome folks there let me try, at home, a whole slew of combinations. Did not even ask for a deposit! For a neeb like me, that made the whole difference and sealed the sale. Till i know more of what i am looking for, this is a good place for me to start.
