Description

A few updated pictures of the new system, its night and I couldn't get good lighting to get a whole system shot, but its around the corner. Overall I am very pleased with this system its a huge downgrade from where I've been and its lower resolution allows me to forget about being an audiophile and enjoy music. While I have no complaints I have little doubt I will be playing with the big boys again in the not so distant future. I am planning on moving with in 2 years and at that time I will search for a better listening environment in my home and build a more SOTA system. At this time I just like the flexibility this system offers, it does everything good and has no real weakness, I feel all the components represent tremendous value, which is why they were chosen.

Tim,
I am eager to hear what you think of new JC-1's with your modified maggies. I've heard this amp takes a while to break in. Give us some comparative examples agaist your BAT VK-500 you had. Maybe before you change to the EMMlabs front end.

I have yet to by pass the tweeter fuse on my 3.6R's, but I am planning on doing so when I have time.
