Well, there it is. This is my beloved system that I have been seriously working on this past year. I'm planning on finishing my speakers and purchasing either a NAD T-514 (DVD Player) or a NAD C521-BEE (CD Player), or both lol. I'm also looking into power filtering of the Panamax or Monster Power type. I'll add it, with pictures soon.
Three-way, open baffle loudspeakers. Critical, fun, spacious and cleverly detailed. Still in prototype disguise, until this summer. Price=so far.
NAD C320BEE
Integrated stereo amplifier. Soft-clipping, 50WRMSx2 into 8-ohm loads, torroidal transformer, alps knobs and buttons, gold plated connections.
Pioneer DV-45A Elite
This thing is amazing for a DVD Player. The mid-range, bass and treble are taut and clean and the player is quick to read and react to commands. The layer change seems to be about one second on poor quality DVDs (purchased ones still), but are very quick with well cut DVDs. I have ordered Eagles-Hotel California DVD-audio or SACD and will comment on it once it comes in.
JVC QL-A2
A great direct drive piece from my Dad.
NAD PP-2
This little guy draws little power and sounds terrific! It's the reason why I didn't DIY my own phono preamp. A great purchase for anyone with value in mind.
Sony Playstation 2
I'm possibly purchasing a NAD T-514 from gramophone (IIRC) for $400. Unless, the Audiocentre in Ottawa will match their price, sorry guys, but for $428 (incl. shipping and tax) it's a killer!
Monster Standard® THX-certified
Run from NAD PP-2 to amplifier and from CD-Player to amplifier.
Monster Gamelink 300- S-Video
It's Monster, enough said.
Monster Interlink 300
Very nice RCA cables, easy to press onto connectors and a very noticeable difference (a good one) from the Standard THX-certified cables.
Monster HTS1000MK.II
eBay :)
Radioshack Mega-Cable Speaker Wire
It's 12 AWG, 99.99% OFC copper. 24kt gold plated interconnects. This will all be Monster in the near future.
