Hi Dan,
I absolutely love your system. It's so clean, well thought out and to the core. I can't imagine how someone couldn't enjoy the music in this system and the room as well.
How is your Dynaco project going? Have you restored it yet?
Okay, you said before in your answer that you are planing the hide the gear or not displaying them and just be lost in the music instead of constantly worshiping the gear. Well, I agree with you on being lost in the music and not thinking about anything but you can also appreciate(not worship) the beauty of the equipment that provides you the music. I think there is a balance somewhere one can maintain without going extreme for either side. Besides, can you really give up the beautiful glow of the tubes?
Anyway, enjoy the music and your system.
Almost forgot, do you live in Brooklyn?
David
