First Hi-Fi system


Hey all,

After much research, reading, learning, and some listening, I have tentatively decided on the following as my first system:

Pathos Classic One Mkiii
PS Audio Digital Link III DAC
Dynaudio Excite X12 (or x16 or Focus 110/140)
Wadia 170i transport

Would love your thoughts, suggestions, comments on the system and putting it together, maybe suggesting interconnects and cables as well.

Thanks to everyone on this site. it truly is a great place to learn about hi-fi.

thanks.

great gear, enjoy. i like to use isolation gear and good gaulity cables for the combination of sound quality and craftsmanship. i also use room treatment panels to experiment with room acoustics. seems to me just get some new/old music and start listening. pretty good entry system to say the least. you have dodged the bullet of intro level gear and expensive upgrades. who recommended these choices? a store or a friend or your reading?
i forgot to mention. my first hifi was a 50 watt luxman interated amp, allison one speakers and a beogram turntable with a tandberg reel to reel in 1975. and i used wire commonly used for lamps. ha. loved it ansd wish i still had it. there have been many since then as i am sure is the experience of 99 percent of the audio music lovers on this site. thanks
