The BEST system you've ever built !!!!


What is the best system that you have ever put together , from source to speakers including cables ??? After all the swaps and auditions I'm looking for the final "aahhh, that's the ticket" sound to you and what components took you to Audio Nirvana. {This is a survey of actual auditions, not what you read in a magazine} THANKS,

Thses systems are alwys changing. I just added a Rowland Coherence -II preamp to go along with the Theta HT processor that just came. David
Rowland 9Ti's going througha Nakamichi processor, soon to be the new Theta casablanca 2. Main speakers are Avalon Osiris. Center and surrounds are JMLabs Mini-Utopias. Source is a Sony SCD-1 with the digital out going through a Dodson Mk-II DAC with the 24/96 upgrade. Wiring is Cardas neutral reference biwire to the Avalons and Neutral reference IC's. The front end is off a PS 300 with Electroglide PT to the Sony and ESP Essence to the Dodson. Coming soon will be 2 REL Studio subs or Aerial SW12's. haven't made up my mind yet. The cenetr channel is a bridged Classe 150 and the rears are off a Clase 400. I do a lot of 2 channel listening and it sounds great. My TV is a Pioneer Elite 710 HDTV. When we redo our basement, in another 6 months, I plan to get a 3chip DLP projector, run off a Home Theatyre PC. Life is good! David
Ther is one gryphon dealer that I know of in chaicago. They are a midfi store more geared to HT but they had a Gryphon set-up with Dynaudio Evidence speakers. It was in a poor location in the store, but the combination sounded very good. The electronics were $350,000!!! Where are you located. Please send me private e-mail. Thanks, David
Just added Analog.Basis Debut 5, Graham 2.0, Benz Ruby2, series 2, and a Herron Phono pre through harmonic tech phono cable. Now I just need my room in the basement to be finished so that I can get it acoustically balanced, put the speakers in their proper places and drastically shorten, and upgrade the cabling.
