I had chance to listen Alpha Prime at California last year. Good cans, but not for portative, too large, you're right.

Future is bright, great and positive.
I replaced my Sennheiser Momentum (1st version) on AudioQuest Nighthawk with aim to listen it at sea. Construction of Hawks is exactly for travellers.

Very interesting system Sergio!

Did you find elevating the cables off the ground make a good improvement?

Regrading footers under speakers cables: my System is not so much transparent for insisting that it works for sure.

I liked your thread very much. Very inspiring.
I have a question about the small support you added below the spikes. Is that ebony?
