Fort Wayne, IN

Hello Scottdog,
I would love to hear about your system.  I have B&W speakers, Classe amps and prepro, and JL Audio sub.  Pretty happy in Fort Wayne.

bwguy,
My system is old and obsolete by manufacturers that are largely out of business, but for what it's worth:
AR turntable highly modified
Magnapan Unitrac I tonearm
Sumiko Talisman S cartridge
Little Bear tube preamp (6N3, 6Z4)
Hafler DH200 amps highly modified
Accoustat model II
M&K Goliath II subs
Nondescript cables
For me it's not about the list of equipment, but what it sounds like and I think it sounds pretty good.  I've been isolated from audio for 25 years and it's easy to delude yourself into thinking it sounds good when others might laugh.  With no high end audio stores in Ft Wayne I have no basis for comparison.  I am hoping to connect with local audiophiles to hear what others have achieved to see how my system compares, it might be good or it might suck.

bwguy,

I saw that you responded and suggested lunch but now I can't find your post.  I thought there was a way to send personal messages through this forum but I can't figure out how to do it and I don't see a way to connect without some personal contact information like email address or phone number which I don't want to put out there for everyone to see.  So yes I would be glade to meet you for lunch sometime, but how do we arrange that?

I might be interested in a FW area audio club. I am using Tubes4HiFi M125 monoblocks, SP14 preamp from them as well, a recapped denon dp-67L, Black Ice audio FX tube DAC, and vintage ADS L1590/2. It would be fun I think to have some sort of a listening club.
