This is "Dream Stereo # 6"....Everything i've always wanted, again.. lol...Started off in 1988 with a Yamaha Receiver, CDP, and Tape Deck- don't recall the speaker brand... Speakers evolved over the years, but stayed within the Klipsch realm- loved em...which in turn, led to monster vision and huge surround sound.(Klipsch CF4's). That part of the journey was A LOT of fun...Get the family together, put on Jurassic Park and grab a kid's leg... :) no Jurassic Park at the moment, but can't wait for "Movie Night" to return to the palace....I really enjoy where i'm at now...The Eighth Nerve Adapt room treatments allow the stereo to continue to evolve and the Piega's to truly tell the story...
Used for it's transport- it's crazy good...As an all-in-one cdp, "thumbs up"
Scott Nixon Tube +
The Tube + is a pdif input non-oversampled "old school" tube buffered dac using low ESR caps. It has a passive switchable anti-sinc filter...This dac is very, very good, IMO...Seperate power supply is available and recommended. ($100)
Modded Denon 2910
I prefer my Scott Nixon Dac and the Aloia transport to the corresponding in this dvd player- it's not bad, but the Aloia is very good...the video portion of this player is excellent.
Mcintosh C2200
Vacuum tube stereo preamp...Very quiet...Warm, detailed and precise...A great match for the Mcintosh 402 amp...
Mcintosh Mc402 Amp
This is one big puppy with nice blue meters...400 watts x 2- will push anything, including Roseanne Barr, but i'm not sure why you would want to? :)
Piega C-10 Limited Speakers
Featuring the coaxial ribbon system and 4 smokin 8 inch drivers. Pretty efficient- 91 and 4 ohm. Relaxed, yet precise- effortless. They will transfer the music down to the smallest detail, fully reproducing the wound features of any cd...The bass is true to the recording...Seamless
Audience Au24
excellent
Audience Au24 single wire
I use these with the Au24 jumpers...nice.
Audience Au24

Shunyata ...

Mapleshade carpet piercing mega feet
30lbs of threaded brass footers...Nice...Very good couplers.
Arcici ...
Floating shelves...great conversation piece for parties.
Eighth Nerve Room Treatments Adapt
Quite interesting....The Adapts allow the room to come alive and for the fat lady to sing...IMO, treating the room is highly recommended...
pioneer elite pro-1130hd
50 inch 1080i plasma tv...delicious and dynamic picture.
thanks....she's a hotty, no doubt....the ps3 is with the current system, but is going to need a tweak in order to get the audio to flow more smoothly....hate to get a processor as i've not needed one yet....i'm going to be posting more pics soon...
aball- no i live down here in good ole miami florida and purchased my stuff through a carolina boy...the mcintosh 402 and the 2200 tube amp do match VERY well with the piega's...i would love to hook up the 501's to these babies- that would be interesting...
glad you came down eric...it's always a good time getting together with friends in front of the stero...look forward to hearing your gear and getting some more feedback on my questions....
thanks chad- the system took a huge leap forward with the intro of the mcintosh 2200 tube pre- it's bringing everything together nicely..the adapt treatments are crazy good and have been an interesting part of the journey- never knew how important treating the room is...the little lady is good company... :)
either way stumpie, it sure would improve the video signal... :) she is sweet... thanks for the comments on my gear...the speakers are pretty cool looking- they've got a little airplane wing shape to them and they sound pretty good too. cheers, brent
I sure am Stumps, but i haven't figured out how to bring em over from my files...any suggestions...And yes, the Mac gets the Piega's chirping- they are very seamless...the bass is tight and not exaggerated- real... i love em. brent
