Description

In the same room I am sharing a dedicated 2 channel audio along with a HT set up.

A simple Onkyo 6.1 receiver is all I use with a panasonic progressive scan DVD player.

The HDTV is mitsubishi 65"(love it)

and for bass a Dalhquist PDQ15 cheap decent sub.the center was a Von shweikert LCR-20 , Audio physic Tempos for main speakers.

I spend more time listening to music but for family time a movie experience is plenty fun.

The Analogue rig is gone for now to make money for the Quicksilver monos and preamp...which are gone now too,it was a tough choice and I miss my TT/phono a lot already....

now just using a very nice sounding Kora 90si integrated along with the Tempos,great sounds for the money.

thxs and aloha! to all.

Aloha!

Do you still have the Audio Physic Tempo's? I have the original version, and they haven't left my system since I got them 7 years ago. I completely agree with your assertion of their "very open/airy and transparent" properties. How well do you feel the Kora amp mates with the Tempo's?

What part of Hawaii do you live in?

I just purchased a NEW Crossroads CD player and I see you have one in your set up.. I don't have any history or even an owners manual.

I'm intereted in how you have enjoyed yours , what you may be able to tell me about the history and details of the player, anything an audio geek might want to know ..

So far I'm really happy with mine .. But I don't have a high end player to reference it against ..

aloha

Albert,

I've got two wahines here leilani and lehua that are wondering why you haven't showed up yet to share that coktail and pupu platter?
what am I to tell them?

Vinyl is like wine and cheese an old fashion ritual that never ceased to please the palate and ears.

Nice to see more vinyl systems coming online.

Enjoy!

Don't you need me to visit and help you listen? I could really go for a few days in Hawaii. Great weather, great music and pretty girls.

By the way, any red wine or single malt scotch in your bar?
