I have accumulated the components in this system starting almost 40 years ago. I have perpetually upgraded component by component over the years. I now consider this to be my last effort in obtaining the ABSOLUTE SOUND, which we are all seeking. I am sure that there are better components available in every area of my system. I have just come to the end of my line. My total focus now will be on purchasing new music. There have been many upgrades to my present equipment that the prices don t reflect. My power amps have all the latest upgrades offered by Jeff Rowland, amounting to about $3,500.00 not counting all the shipping expense. My Pre amp has a phono section, which is a $600 upgrade that was extra, & also a module upgrade that was $400. I think through the years I can honestly say that one of the most fun parts of all this equipment, has been meeting such a really nice group of people, who’s interest have been the same as mine. The LOVE of MUSIC. I can’t read a note, but I can sure tell you when it sounds right or wrong. Audio 4 Fun
