My stereo


I have completed my "forever" hifi system yesterday with the addition of the AI Modulus 2C. The pre-amp has been repaired and it lives again. This is shortly after getting the Vandersteen 2Ce Sig II speakers and four identical Kenwood L-05M mono block power amps. I play digital audio content off Quboz through my SMSL DO100 Pro DAC with digital volume control. The 32-bit digital volume control on the DAC allows me to control volume with the remote and reduce the level of the input, making the pre-amp function with modern sources, in a more modern way (one volume control instead of two on pre-amp, with remote control). This system is very important to me as it gives me an escape into the land of music exploration. Now that I've gotten everything working I am going to leave it alone. No touching tubes, wires, or anything like that. I'm using WBC Mogami 2964 cables throughout. 6 foot interconnects from pre-amp to amps. 0.5 foot between DAC and pre-amp. I also use a Furman AC-215A power conditioner with everything.

Congratulations...I have been buying audio equipment since 1969...I would keep upgrading but ,I, don't have any extra money anymore, to spend on Audio Equipment...

Congrats on the Vandys (lovely speakers) , also the MHDT Labs DAC (I have the Orchid, which is wonderful).

But I have to agree about the TV. Any latter day LG OLED would probably stomp all over your current LG. I'm a plasma lover who moved up the biggest LG OLED I could find ... which remains a transformative experience.
