    • Oracle Audio Technologies Delphi mkII
    20 years old - sounds amazing but now dies OCCASIONALLY. Hoping that Arthur at the Funkfirm can work his magic on it. Syrinx/airy/isolator will be going on the funked Linn. Still sounds great when it works - additional counterweight for the the Syrinx by Johnny 7 at Audioorigami works huge transformation on the Syrinx PU 3

    Thanks Jean N
    • Well Tempered Cheapest & oldest??
    Fabulous musicality and a breeze to set up
    • Supratek Even Mick don't know?
    Scabby old mongrel which sounds sublime but lacks the gain of the Syrah but romps it otherwise.
    • Audiopax 88 monoblocks
    Finally with suitable speaker cables, these things sing, boy do they sing but takes a few hours for them to warm up which is a bore.
    • Audio Physic Virgo
    Virgo 111's - stunning

    1.5 mtr pre to power 3 mtr pre to power
    • Aural Thrills actives
    Cerious Tech and Harmonic Tech big snakes killed the Audiopax stone dead. These are very nice if not the last word and seem to let the amps work well.
    • Lots Various
    Anaconda Vx on Hydra,Virtual Dynamics Ltd Master on cd, Modified Epiphany X on Pass labs. Various Electraglides and Oyaides
    • Lots various
    Isolation devices on everything. Townshend sinks, Voodoo air platforms, Aurios, Dharumas. Silclear, Setten no.1 Original Shunyata Hydra with slug. Sound Mechanics DC-1, Isoclean power bar, JMSR Ultra Tweeters, tube dampers and lots of room treatments.
    • Quicksilver PhonoStage
    Second one of these on it's way. With their step up this is a gaint killer imo.

Hi Simon,
I am getting Passlab X150.5 for my virgo III. It seems much less power than yours. Is it going to have enough power for the speakers? My room is 14ft deep x 17ft wide x 10ft height.
You mentioned about your power cables (Anaconda/python for your amp) was not best yet, what will be better?. I currently have python alpha to hydra II then python alpha to the amp. Would you give an advice on the my up grading power cord.
Thanks

Hi Simon74,
Your system is very nice. How well is the match of the Virgos with Pass Lab? Just asking you because I own the virgos and thinking of upgrade my heathkit W4-AM to pass Lab. Thanks in advance for your comments.
