Description

I am a fanatic music lover and have been a Linne for 25 years. We're very happy with our primary two channel system and do not upgrade very often. We generally buy good stuff, really take care of it and enjoy it for many years. No desire to chase the holy grail of audio and spend gobs of money doing so.

We listen to jazz (lots of trio music but other formats as well), classic rock, new age, classical, electronic, some new folk / rock, the crooners, soundtracks and a little opera on occasion.

I believe in only keeping music that you will listen to in the future. There's too much great music available to waste time listening to material that doesn't move you in some way.

My wife designed the custom cabinet to feature the equipment and hide as many cables as possible. We also wanted the system to fit in with our home decor and avoid the stereo shop look.

No upgrades planned at this time. We'll wait for the winner of Blu-Ray vs. HD DVD to shake out before jumping into the category.

All questions / comments are welcomed.

Music is what it's all about. A great system further enhances the emotional experience.
