So, a quick overview.
- T+A components and connections, as I like the moving needles, clean look and scientific approach. They deliver a crisp and clear sound, in a nice, heavy design. Visited the factory already, very friendly people over there;
- Fyne Audio speakers. Saw them, heard them, bought them. Amazing look & sound;
- REL subwoofer & connectivity as I like my bass to be present. Alas, the sub is on the other side of the living room;
- Shunyata power cables, flexible and outstanding;
- Tempo Electric silver speaker cables, 10 & 12 gauge, with a very colorful look (it's in the living room after all), to bi-wire speakers on the amp.
For isolation, I have custom made oak slabs, on top of several soft fat dots, for the components. The speakers are on Gaia I, standing on custom made marble plinths as I have an old wooden floor.
While it looks expensive, I've been upgrading equipment for over a decade and bought some items second hand, after a manufacturer review. Being in Belgium (Europe), it's just a short drive to Germany and Netherlands where people seem to be more fond of high end audio stuff.
