Question about SACD and DSD
Thanks for the responses.@kr4 , I have a Questyle CMA400i DAC which can handle up to DSD256 (They claim True DSD without any PCM Converting).On the PC side, I use JRiver Software.I've bought a few DSD albums but the album that really opened up my ... 
The Weekend
I had heard some of The Weekend's songs on the radio before but didn't really know who he was. They were catchy but didn't think much of it.Then the song, "Blinding Lights" came out and I really liked it and paid a little more attention.I like all... 
Looking for a new phono preamp
The only phono that I have any experience with so far is the Sim Audio Moon 110lp V2, which is in my system and been doing me well so far over a year.And so I would recommend the big brother, 310lp.I have read good reviews.Never had any issues or ... 
Vincent Audio SV-500 Arriving Today
@blackbag20Hi, I don’t have any major updates. All I can say is that I continue to enjoy this IA and have not had any issues with it. Sometimes I think about adding a Vincent Amp and using the SV-500 as a Pre-Amp but honestly, for my room and list... 
Vincent Audio SV-500 Arriving Today
@bhd72Hello, I completely forgot about this thread.To answer your question, I did end up staying with the Vincent SV-500.If you look on my Virtual Systems Page, you will see it there and I also created a Youtube Video on my system.I have been quit... 
What to buy?
My suggestion, simply because this is what I have, Martin Logan Motion 40's. They have a newer model out now but I think you can still find the Motion 40's, new, at a reduced price that should come under $2k.Mine were $2K when new.

Why no Virtual System pics??
My system is pretty basic but I took it a step further and also posted a Youtube Video in addition to the Virtual Systems.I really enjoy looking at everyone else's systems.Thnx 
Videos of your System
@noromance The imaging of my system seems fine to me but I'm sure can be improved.The problem is that space you see if the only space I have available for my system (Living Room). I wish I had a dedicated listening room.So that cabinet has to hold... 
Considering a new Phono Pre-Amp
Millercarbon, thanks for your insight on the Herron.@slaw , never heard of that company before but I will check it out, thanks.Thanks to everyone for their suggestion, much to think about.Too bad I can't demo some of these units easily, that would... 
Videos of your System
Well I did it, ha.Here is a link to my video: https://youtu.be/_3lAR3OgQtUIt's my first one on my Stereo System so don't flame too hard, lol.It's a bit cheesy but you'll get the gist.If I continue, especially just playing different track as I have... 
Videos of your System
@ebm I hear you on that.I plan to be behind the camera the whole time just talking and displaying my system and playing a few demo tracks.Hopefully soon.I did one other video on my car and at first it was really weird, just talking about the car b... 
How Low Can You Go?
@imhififan That room seems insane. It would be something to experience even just for a few minutes. 
How Low Can You Go?
Man, I just woke up from a nap and missed Miller's first response.But thanks for the responses nonetheless.I hate this feeling of trying to run after something that might not even be there (Yea I know, it's probably there) instead of just sitting ...
