Default Anyone Running Focal ES 165kx2's?

I'm thinking hard about these speakers, figure the BT2180 is 2ohm stable, why not right?

I ran the previous version for quite a while, the KRXK2 and they were a damn good speaker!!! But i do have to admit that my ears absolutely liked the Hertz MLK 165.3 better!!!

Funny you say that, I've got the krc 165 in the tour pack and the MLK 165.3 in the fairing.

I was looking at the Hertz as well. I just wasn't happy with the EXC (I think) Hertz so was kinda staying away.
