The system is built along with the minimalistic philosophies regarding aesthetics, assimilation within surrounding nature and environment with enough rough edges to tweak in order to waste a lot of time and money.
I got 2 Gain and 1 Source cords. First Gain connects the Furutech ETP60 to the Audio Magic Stealth power distributors. Second Gain cord connects Stealth to Gaincard. The Source cord connects ETP60 to CD player.

Parasound CDP-2000
Parasound CDP-2000 Ultra
It is a CEC transport similar to the CEC 5100Z and a UltraAnalog DAC section using PCM-1702 burrbrown chips.
However, I am using this as a transport only.

Carolina Audio JTM
This is a Jordan/Leijlic design as far as I know which uses the Jorden JX92 aluminum 4 inch drivers. Ronnie, the sole proprietor at Carolina Audio, custom makes these speakers according to the original designs with some of his own modifications.

Used in three ways: CD mat, wrapped around AC cord, and fitted inside Eichmann Bulletplugs. Beat that Jack Bybee!
I certainly think single drivers are the way to go. I never heard the Carolina speakers, but I know the Jordan drivers are very highly regarded, and a DIY with Jordan drivers won the Atlanta DIY Audio Fest "Best DIY Speaker" award, a year or 2 ago.
I agree that this is a very interesting system. I've found another Single-Driver listener! This is very exciting. I think a Gaincard/Single-driver system is real cool. I see that you have done alot with power conditioning, and I think that is very important. It is unique, and refreshing to see a system like this.
By the way, in case you hadn't heard, the Albert Porter cryo'd outlets are now being called "Porter Ports".
