The One That Got Away

by camadeco on Secondary Rigs

Description

This is not really a secondary system, more like a system that I should have had second thoughts about before selling.

The Plinius and the ProAcs were amazing. The BAT was transparent and the phono was very good. The SR cables were expensive but they were quiet and dynamic. I used SR cables throughout this system.

If I didn't need to get money out of the system for emergency household expenses, I'd probably still have it.

Components Toggle details

    • Metronome CD2-V Signature
    An alltime sleeper. I don't know what it is about the Metronome line that US buyers dislike so much. Once of the best one-box players ever, IMHO.
    • Synergistic Research Designer Ref
    With MPC. The Metronome was single ended, so I could not use balanced cables.
    • Rega Planar-25
    Easy to setup and maintain. Good enough interconnects saved $$.
    • Benz Micro Glider HO
    Excellent tracking and dynamics
    • Magnum Dynalab MD-90
    Probably the most used component in the system.
    • Audioquest Ruby
    1m RCA between tuner and pre-amp.
    • Balanced Audio Vk3i
    Remote and phono.
    • Synergistic Research Designer Ref
    Balanced out from BAT to balanced in on Plinius.
    • Plinius SA-100 mkII
    Leave it on in A/B and switch to Class A on the fly.
    • Synergistic Research Designer Ref
    With MPC.
    • Proac Response 2.5
    Mid-range champion.
    • Target 5 Shelf
    Not the best, but not the worst.
