Cosmetic Description: 7/10 Very good cosmetic condition with some minor visible cosmetic wear including nicks and chips in the finish along the bases and feet of both speakers, small areas of adhesive residue on the back panel of both speakers, and faint lightening of the finish underneath the area the grills cover on the front baffle. Both tweeter domes appear to have been indented, with one tweeter still showing an indentation. Also, the tweeters are not original, and the spacers used to mount them do not sit flush within the original cutout, causing the grills to not fit correctly. This item shows some wear consistent with its age but is still presentable and sounds wonderful.

Other Notes: The super tweeters on this pair of speakers were replaced with unbranded German metal dome tweeters that appear to be aluminum but have no other information printed on their magnets. A spacer was created because of the new terminal orientation of this tweeter, and the spacer and tweeter assembly doesn't quite fit into the tweeter recess. The assembly is also not completely flush, and there is a small opening underneath it.
"The most prominent character of Talon X, and the one thing that I believe it will be most famous for, lies in its bass performance. Most loudspeakers in this price range do wonders in the areas of soundstaging, three dimensionality, tonality and perceived depth along with midrange lucidity. The Khorus X performs flawlessly in these important areas but that isn't what it does best of all.
What it can do like no other loudspeaker I've heard to date is dig into the smallest crevice and unleash bass notes in a three-dimensional space of their own. Imagine bass that's harmonic, gut wrenching and rich. Bass as tight as a turtle's ass, yet delicate as silk and all at once, breathtakingly lifelike." - Clement Perry, Stereo Times
