Good for you, 2psyop
My current system began taking shape 4 years ago and recently became complete and the sound is fabulous. I am now re-listening to just about everything in my collection. The journey has been fulfilled!
VPI HW19 table with an Ortofon TA-110 arm & Cadenza Blue. VPI HW16.5 Cleaner. Sutherland Engineering N1 Preamp w/ a pair of EKSC Eagle 11' monoblock's on Acapella platforms. Custom made silent HD Audio PC w/ an MAudio 24/96 audiophile sound card. Wilson Benesch Vertex loudspeakers w/ W-B Torus System for the low end.
Initial placement had the equipment rack between the loudspeakers, but everything changed with the addition of the Torus system. The rack went along a sidewall and the Torus went between the 2 main speakers. It really dialed in at that point with some fine adjustments. Even my wife is listening with me again.
