I ve met some great folks in this hobby and with their help, my brother’s experience, and extensive trial and error, what has emerged is sound which resonates with emotion and makes me smile every single day.

Welcome to the EML 300B XLS club, and again, thanks to Charles for his recommendation, as that is how I learned of the XLS's, too.

My small world is much better with great sounding music, now is the best time, due to considered positive changes. Those changes come from learning, due to the valued help of others.

Congratulations, and enjoy your fine system.
Regards,
Dan
