VM,
Your system is right up my alley! I've a good deal of experience with the Quads (21 and 22L's) and believe them to be the absolute best choice @ the price. I'm planning to get a pair of 21L's (they're a bit easier for my ASL 1003 integrated to drive than the 22L's) and eventually a Manley Stingray because of their synergistic relationship. I also own a (bone stock) MMF 2.1LE and the Bellari phonostage...very smooth combo (imho). I know that Underwood claims very high resolution for that cdp mod, having listened to it, what do you think? I currently own a Music Hall Maverick but am considering the slightly less expensive Consonance CD120 Linear for its smooth analog sound. We, obviously, have similar tastes in gear so what do you think about the Consonance? I also wanted to mention that the consistency of your color scheme with the gear and room is excellent!...Well done.
