Eventually will settle on "final" analog front end including phono stage, but the rest of the pieces are likely here to stay. It's been a loooong journey...
My WB Full Circle with ACT 0.5 arm has a Clearaudio Maestro strapped to the business end.
EAR USA 834P
EAR 834 phono - the deluxe chrome version, w/o volume. Mullard CV4004s really sing in this application.
AMR CD-77.1
Tube CD player using TD1541A chip, various remote-switchable filtering and upsampling options, and USB input for external digital sources.
Cary Audio Design SLP-05
Two chassis all-tube line stage using eight 6SN7s (four NOS Sylvanias and four Electro-Harmonix) and NOS Philips Holland metal base 5AR4 rectifier. Replaced the Cary SLP-98 in October, 2011 (moved to office rig).
Lamm Industries ML-2
The ML2s are a dream come true, and 18 WPC is plenty to drive the Avantgarde Duo Omegas. Best amp I've ever heard.
Avantgarde Duo Omega
The Avantgarde Duo Omegas use 107dB sensitive Alnico magnet horn mids & tweeters, with no crossover on the mids. The powered subs have 200 wpc internal amps driving a pair of 100 dB sensitive, 10" woofers per channel, with adjustable crossover point & volume. Now have Grand Prix Audio Apex carbon fiber footers (not pictured).
Crystal Cable MicroConnect
Replaced previous Nordost stuff throughout my system.
Crystal Cable Micro
Replaced Nordost in my system.
Grand Prix Audio Monaco Modular rack & amp stands
These are the goods - expensive but worth it! Have two of the F1 carbon fiber shelves (under sources), and Apex feet under equipment rack and amp stands.
Shunyata Hydra 6
Very happy with this - formerly used Transparent Audio conditioner.
I can just about hear music in the air from here. Very nice system. What size is your room, and are there any rooom treatment issues you have encountered? Your listening sessions must indeed be a joy. Glen
