Description

This is my system ive been building for about two years. I first started with B&W 802d's and all mcintosh gear. I am very happy with my current system, but there is room for improvements. I am looking at upgrading the interconnects and possibly a preamp, but For now i think it sounds great! Any opinions or suggestions are welcome!

Hey my room is about 15 wide 25 length, i recently put up room treatments. So far I love my wp 8's!

Hi I was curius what your room dimensions are and how the WP 8s are working out for you? I noticed that you aren't using much in the way of room treatments unless they are out of the picture in the back.

Fun combination of various brands of top gear. I always enjoy the matching of different components. Sometimes different flavors bring out the best in a meal or in music.

Hey, the system does sound great from comparisons with other systems i have heard around my area. Before my VTL's i had Mcintosh 501 monoblocks amps, although they sounded good i noticed a big difference when i replaced them with the VTL's. The difference i found was that with the VTl's the sound was clearer and more powerful. As far as the Krell cd player, we tested back to back with a EMM labs CDSA and found that the Krell was significantly better. Im no expert in this field so i dont know exactly how to explain the differences.

Mikelu:

Bet the system sounds great, plenty of detail from the Krell and the warmth of tubes. While the VTL's are wonderful, have you ever considered a McIntosh amp to complement the C2200?
