Updated basic stereo system. Newly joined the band is a pair of Klipsch Reference RF-25's. Awesome dynamic power. I had to kick the B&W's out because of the size of my new living room. Around 16WX25DX8H. Klipsch provide a more "live" sound, which is what I have been looking for all these years. I just purchased a Jolida JD-100 CDP. Amazing unit, opened up the sound and definatly more enjoyable to listen to over the Sony ES unit I had. I also upgraded the tubes in my 1701 to Tung Sol from Ei. The Tung-sols are more lush and musical than the Ei tube, which made my system hard, although good tubes for the Jolida CDP.
I'm gettting ready to upgrade my older comsumer system (boston/onkyo) and the speakers and amp I'm thinking about using are the B&W DM 602s3 with the Jolida 1701a tube/hybrid. They do seem to make a good match.
