Hi Cerrot,
It seems Andrew was actually paying you quite a compliment and wasn't
being condescending regarding the Sander's very reasonable cost. At least
that's what comes across to me. Congratulations on your very nice system.
Charles,

They are good, regardless of cost. Roger sells direct, so, right there, we save 50% or more in retailer mark up and other nonsense. Truly silly to comment on these with the price comment.

cerrot October 07, 2014 12:30

Nice system. I have heard Roger's speakers at Axpona in Atlanta and they are superb. I even convinced a friend to buy a set. For the money, they are very hard to beat.....

System edited: The Sanders 10D's are fully broken in and they have surpassed the prior upgraded Eros Mk II, and my very high expectations, by an incredible margin. Coupled with the pair of Magtechs and modded digital crossoover, there is a sense of realism, musicality, timing, speed, detail and transparancey I only dreamed about. Roger Sanders really did an incredible job with the new speakers. The amps, speakers and crossover screamed for a preamp and when I added the Ayre, really allows the Esoteric K03 to shine on alomost all material. Speaker cable and IC upgrades were done (tara Labs The One from prior Tara RSC Air Ones) which just put the icing on the cake (and pushed my rear wall four feet deeper). Vinyl and FM also sound awesome. Computer audio is at a new high for me and I'm just enjoying music for the first time in a while. Reel to reel is blis and my new hobby is finding old tape.

It's the silver cable. Hope it does for you what it is doing for me.

cerrot August 22, 2014 23:30

Thank you Cerrot. I'm going to give it a try. What cable did you purchase with the Entreq?

tboooe August 22, 2014 22:17

Tbooe, I have the entreq attached to the grounding screw on my esoteric K03 and it put my dac on steroids. Faster, deeper soundstage, more detail. Really nice for the money.

cerrot August 22, 2014 21:43

Cerrot, I am curious to hear your thoughts on the Entreq grounding system. I am thinking about trying it out myself so I would really appreciate hearing your thoughts.

tboooe August 22, 2014 21:18

System edited: I just posted some new photos to reflect my recent upgrades. I could not be happier. I can finally feel what I thought I would feel when I got to a certain point in this hobby. It has exceeded my expectations.

Enjoy the amp, Jazzkid. Its a sweet sounding amp with plenty of power. I am drooling as well. Roger really did something special with these speakers. Thanks for the post and enjoy that awesome amp!

cerrot June 29, 2014 10:57

I'm drooling Dennis I spent four hours with Roger at his shop in Conifer a few years ago. Those speakers are awesome but I can't afford them so I got a used set of sound lab M1. I did get his ELS Mk II amp.

Hi Jon, thank you for the kind words. I would like to upgrade my turntable in the future,, but, gotta say, even with my current set up, vinyl just sounds better. I can't describe it other than it's an emotion thing. My digital does it, don't get me wrong. Vinyl just does it... Better.

Can't really go 1to 10.

Careful if you go the vinyl route. It's like getting a puppy. Needs more attention than digital but when it licks your face, you smile.

cerrot April 29, 2014 01:59

Congrats, Dennis, on your fabulous system which comprises both high end digital and analog sources. As you are in an excellent position to compare the two, how would you rate your digital front end against your analog, say on a scale of 1 to 10. I am curious as I am itching to wade into analog territory.

System edited: I have had some fun upgrading. New Sanders
Stats, the aluminum driver 10D. Having alot of fun just
listening to music. I can really hear deep into whats being
played. Really makes me understand the difference between
tone and resolution. I finally have both.

cerrot April 19, 2014 12:43

I just put 10 hour or so on a new pair of Sanders Sound 10D Speakers. Just out with Aluminum Drivers, they take me right where I need to be. A few hours out of the box and no looking back for me. I am a stat guy for LIFE. Sanders Stats.

Thanks, Glen.

Great room, great gear. Enjoyed seeming the pictures.

System edited: I replaced my 11 year old Innersound Preamp with a used Ayre K5xeMP and am thrilled with the improvement.

cerrot March 29, 2014 11:59

Recent upgrade-replaced Innersound Pre-amp with Ayre K5xeMP.

I always liked the Ayre but thought my preamp was quiet as a tomb so no reason to replace. Well, I was wrong and this is awesome and I am a happy camper!

cerrot March 23, 2014 11:20

Hi Tboooe,

I had started out with the RSC Air 1's years back so just stayed within the Tara Labs family. I took s shot a few years back on The One IC and have not looked back. It just seemed like the right progression for me. I truly cannot beleive what these cables can do.

Thank you.

cerrot March 04, 2014 15:25

Nice upgrade Dennis. I have The One speaker cables and am looking to upgrade my IC as well. Did you audition other Tara models before settling on the One IC?

tboooe March 01, 2014 16:22

Some more very recent updates:
Replaced an old monster sigma retro cable (IC between digital crossover & bass amp) with Tara Labs The One and the improvement was incredible. Gave a nice squared shape to the rear of the sound stage and just really gave a wonderful frame to the music. Once I saw what that could do, I replaced the Tara Labs RSC AIR One speaker cable for the ESL panels and upgraded to Tara Labs The One. Needless to say, the improvement is staggering. I also just purchased a modded Behringer DCX 2496 crossover from Simon Ashton in the UK and, even after just 24 hours on it, the improvement is definitely worth it. I will post photos when I can.

cerrot March 01, 2014 11:53

Hi Tboooe,

I have one in each of the front corners, for a total of 2 in Cherry. They really make a nice difference. The website says you cant overdampen so 4 should be easy enough.

So far, I am very happy with the results. Truly unexpected and well worth the cost.

cerrot December 27, 2013 02:06

Hey Cerrot! I am also a fan of Vicoustic products. I was thinking about putting diffusion between my speakers but given my small room I felt that absorption would be better. Once my wallet recovers from Xmas I plan to get the Superbass traps as well. How many did you end up getting? I was planning on 4 total, 2 on each side stacked in the front corners. Also curious what color you got?
