Just an update

Hi everyone, Its been awhile since I posted. I'm more of a reader type. Anyways wanted to update everyone on my expanding system.

The Tannoys and B&E's continue to produce incredible sounds that I am very pleased with. Together with the Rotel the whole system sounds great to my novice ears.

I've caught the bug. But on a much lower budget. My wife wanted music in the kitchen so I picked up a wireless speaker system and added the 2 Sansui's that I had. The lattice work on the grills looks really cool in the kitchen. Unfortunately, compared to the speakers in the living room the Sansui's sound tinny so we decided to try to replace them.

At the local flea market I picked up a pair of ADC 303AX speakers that needed a new home. I had to clean up the wood on them from years of things being stacked on them. They cleaned up very well and have a nice golden finish to them. As for sound we've tested them out in the garage with all the junk and they sounded really good. There is a set of BA's that I setup in the garage (another cheap purchase) and the ADC's had a deeper and fuller bass response than the BA's.

Than at the same market a week later I picked up a pair of Rectilinear monsters. They have 6 speakers inside. Not totally sure of the model number but it looks like the name plate on the grill has III on it so I'm guessing they are Rectilinear 3's? We hooked these up in the garage and my daughter thought they were so awesome she immediately laid claim to them for her room. We let them play a little while with George Thorogood while we did yard work. Sounded great outside with the sound reverbing off the house across the street.

My neighbor moved out and gave me a music streamer that plays mp3 and wav files from the computer through the home system by using the network. Its kind of fun to be able to play those mp3's but you hear the difference in quality.

The Onkyo amp chugs along nicely although it still has issues now and than of cutting out and just making gargling sounds. I keep looking for a replacement for it but in the mean time I turn it off let it sit for awhile than its ok again.

Well again to those who helped me out getting my system moved to a higher level I still owe you a big Thank you. You made a big change in my "stuck at home" attitude.

Take care, Dave
