Description

This is my dream system, A system that begin at 1999 with the buying of the ML 335 power amplifier. The system as evolving piece by piece, with a carefull study and listening of the equipment.

All the orientation was to buy good stuff, trying not to make constant changes, or loosing money in impulse upgrades. I begin for the expensive stuff from Mark Levinson, Revel, and now going for the sources,I like vinyl, I always like so my first choice was in turntable instead of the Cd, this is my 4º turntable. I'm still not finish, the evolution goes on, I knew I need severall things the search continues, the ASR Basis Exclusive phono stage is the ultimate buying, I espect this piece in Fev., but only arrive in April, now I installed and the burn process beguin.

In 2006, I spend a lot in audio equipment, and make severall changes, 2007 I don´t know, but the system go to improve, and I hope good things, and goods sounds!

My new house is not ready yet, I projected there a dedicated room of 38 m2 for the job. In the future I espect to mount a A/V combination stuff for my listenings and movies recreation. But now I'm looking for the analog rig and try to improve that at the best level.
