The 2022!

Your combo of Technics SL-1210GR & Dynavector 20x2H, a match made in heaven! I've tried my fair share of Technics SL-12xxx turntables and Dynavector cartridges, and they just WORK.

Great call on the Sarrinen womb. I check Craigslist every day for that chair (among others).

System edited: I added the Valab NOS DAC to make music out of the optical signal coming from my home theater PC. I can't overstate how much of a difference this made. The bass is so much deeper now...

It looks like the outside album on the bottom shelf is a Sufjan Stevens album, but I can't place the cover art. If that's John Wayne Gacy next to him in the painting then I would guess it's somethi...

A hobby with HI-FI

Thanks for the kind words on my system. I've been incredibly happy with my Thiel 2.2's, and I've never had a chance to audition the 2.4's, but I can only imagine how sweet and accurate they are!

Is that Arco lamp vintage or new stock? It's a beautiful piece either way. Great looking system by the way. Do you notice that having a room with so many hard surfaces causes any loss in im...

The one on montgomery is Everybody's Records. They have a good selection there. Shake It has better Jazz and Indie vinyl I think. Where did the majority of your record collection come from?
