This is a high-resolution system with emphasis on analog playback and high-quality digital upsampled playback. It is possible to approach superb analog qualities with a DSD system; there is a 2:1 price to performance ratio needed, assuming that the analog equipment is near the top of the ladder.

Listener position determined by near-field optimal acoustics. The goal for holographic sound presentation has been achieved.
I have recently upgraded my phono stage, tonearms and cartridges, preamp, and primary speakers. Now I have the option of surround sound for film, concert video, and sports while maintaining outstanding 2-channel playback at any time. The Lexicon works through the Pass XP-20 unity gain pass through input. Made the wise decision to mount plasma on the wall which greatly increased imaging space.
Great system. I also have the summits but in a 2 channel system. I was wondering about the platforms that your summit are on. What are they and do they make a difference in the music? My roon is carpeted. Thanks
