    • Thorens TD-124
    A perfect TD124, rebuilt w/new bearings/mushrooms/belt etc and now a new plinth which I made. Mated with the Graham Phantom arm.
    • California Audio Labs Icon mkII
    An older player - run through the benchmark DAC1 - great combo
    • McIntosh MC 402
    The workhorse of my system. Power is never a problem
    • McIntosh C 2200
    A nice match with the MC402 - tube rolled with matched 1970 Amerex 12AX7
    • McIntosh MR-85
    Tuner is important as we have great stations.
    • Manley Steelhead
    Finally I have the Steelhead - with this the soundstage and and imaging is unreal.
    • Martin Logan Spire
    I upgraded from the AZ Adagio speakers - I am now a fan of planars - these speakers rock

    Rewired with Cardas 4x33 shielded cable plus the Pete Riggle VATF adjuster

    My main cart -

Might not be of my business, but what's your job?

Very cool system by the way.

Well done!!!!

Love the wall mounted components and of course the MCs.

Spin the Yellowjackets.

Great system! I spot what looks to be a very expensive Finite Elemente rack. Good idea mounting the TT's with wall racks too!

Do you have the Maestro mounted on the TNT?...I loved that cart and wish I still had mine.

Congrats on a very nicely done set up.
