All About Reproducing Music, The Journey
I love music of all different types; that is why I chase this hobby and the relentless quest for the ultimate sound in my main listening system. I moved from a system several years ago that attempted to be an all out assault on a 7.1 HT and 2-channel hybrid system that offered great performance for both purposes. For many reasons I sold off the HT portion of the system to focus on building the best 2-channel system I could assemble. There has been much trial and error over the years and I've learned a lot throughout the process of assembling the components and cables which are themselves a key component in any system that are in this latest posting of my system. Elrod Power Systems, Legacy, Esoteric, Kubala, Edge and PurePower are the key manufacturers of the best components in this system (and any other I've owned). They have helped me redefine my idea of what it takes to build a great-sounding system and they have made it possible for me to hear in my own home, the level of musical reproduction that I have chased for years. Audiogon has been a great source of information and new friends who share this passion for chasing audio nirvana.
