Having been retired nearly 5 years, I decided late last year to acquire the final pieces of my “End Game” system. I auditioned both speakers and integrated amplifiers from local Seattle area dealers. Online research had already put my finalists Dynaudio Confidence 20 speakers and the Luxman 509Z Integrated amplifier on my short list, but the auditions sealed the deal. I also decided to invest in a quality audio rack and settled on the pricey but aesthetically pleasing Solidsteel H-5. The cherry on top was adding a pair of REL T-5X subs earlier this year. A major deciding factor with these choices is how they would work in my very confined listening space. I was very happy to purchase these items from local dealers and they rewarded me with discounts and excellent customer service. I was also able to trade in my old equipment on the amp and speakers. After nearly 50 years in this hobby, I can finally say I have achieved sonic contentment. The music has always come first for me with sound quality a close second.
