logged in an order for pair of X4 with heavy arms.

last week just collected Xonar Essence One for driving the X4 from another forumer, hopefully it would work out well.

my setup would be
PC USB(ASIO)>Xonar Essence One(Bal'd Out)>X4

other option would be
PC Optical(WASAPI)>Xonar Essencce One(Bal'd Out)>X4

Have you already bought the essence one? If not you should hunt for a better DAC. The X4 is very quiet and extremely detail as is. Even without running it balanced it's probably indistinguishable. I can't tell the difference running balanced vs unbalanced through my own Lavry DA11 (this thing is a heck lot better than the essence one). The X4 comes with unbalanced to XLR cable.
Unfortunately no. Cyntrix is not run by billionaire sweat.gif

DA11? thats 3 times the price. and it better be 3 times better than XE one.

jk, no offense. my table is too small for DA11 btw blush.gif

Wow. Gotta be extremely careful with the setup, if you drop the speaker I think you'd be extremely painful...

my room is too small for a stand.already crowded with boxes, printers, cloth hangs

each X4 sats weighs at 4kg. i think 2 angle bars is sufficient later i try cover the gap using plywood and if 2 angle bars are not sufficient, i'll make it three then. smile.gif
