Description

This is my updated rig from my last entry. As always trying to squeeze that last sonic drop from what's listed. All the pieces are used and in real good shape. I recently purchased a new laser assembly and belts for the transport. The Aronov I feel really put things together.Great pre and the Amperex Bugle Boys kick it up a notch. I forgot to include the digital cables: Jena labs Gemini,Kimber DV-30. I was thinking of adding a silver ic between the pre and pwr to replace the opal. Any suggestions? Thanks, Bret

Hi Timruh, As you can see my beloved Kestrals are no longer with me :( But I agree with you they are hard to beat for the money. Good listening.

System edited: I have downsized some as you can see. This rig is very musical and I'm enjoying it alot. The quest continues.

You haven't posted in a while so I imagine things have changed. I'm curious if you're still using the Kestrels. I have been using a pair of Kestrel Hot Rods for a couple of years myself. Of course the upgrade bug is always biting but whenever I sit down with the Kestrels I wonder how to beat them for the money. Some pics would be great.

Thanks TOK, I have the basic cord from Virtual Dynamics on the transport. I have tried various others but even with the basic I don't seem to hear much of an improvement. It may be time to change that laser. Any other ideas? Thanks, Bret BTW I spelled Rouge wrong. Sorry to the owners.

Sounds like you have a nice balanced system. You might want to experiment with better power cords on your transport and maybe look at upgrading your speaker cables.

While putting this post together I thought about the Rouge gear and wondered how the 66 pre would sound compared to my current piece. All Rouge owners say I.
