Interconnects by Audio Tekne, speaker wire the same, Amp Audio Tekne with a North Star Phono stage . Adept Response from Audience for AC and Spendor Special Edition 3/5 as the transducer.

    One of a kind specially built for us . Is it the best. Could be
    • North Star Phono preamplifer
    This Italian beauty renders the same tonal balance and texture you would enjoy in the fine concert halls in Italy. It weighs a ton and has a seperate internal power supply connected by an umbilical cord.
    • Audio Tekne Simona IT 2
    This is a wonderful triode pure class A amplifer using a single dual triode tube working push pull per channel. We have delivered a number of these and they are very special. It has a volume control so our system is going to be a very simple configuration.
    • Spendor S 3/5 se Rosewood
    These speak for themselves. We are looking for the lowest coloration for a very small room. What can I say?
    • Audio Tekne ARC 500
    These are the finest sounding connections we know of. They are micro fine litz covered with enamal and shielded with metal. No inductance and lovely smooth.
    • Audio Tekne Power cable
    Just right detail and a real improvement .
    • Audience Adept Responce Friend and Customer Tony Rice
    This is the latest from this innovative company. This months Perfect Vision has a beautiful write up and it will be an editors choice in Absolute Sound. This is my friend Tony Rice. Many will know him as the worlds finest flat picker. We both are vinyl nuts and it's nice to have a freind to listen with you.

Great looking table. Did Gunther make it? I sometimes feel like my Mambo (see URL below for photo) is a "one of a kind" as I never see or hear of another anywhere. Mine is set up with a Tri Planar MKVII 'arm and a Shelter 90x cartridge and sounds better that any 'table I have ever heard. I think the only reason why their 'tables are not more popular is poor U.S. distribution and perhaps poor manufacturer support.
