Description

Digital only system, but only because my 4000 records are in temporary storage. Also have a Rega Planar 25 with Shelter 501 MkII and a modified PS Audio GCPH. Decided, after much listening, that I didn't want a preamp. The sound, with the P8i (and when it's set up, the GCPH) running directly into the monoblocks, was better all around.

Goals in the next year are to buy a new house, complete with unfinished basement, that I can craft into a serious listening space. Following this, add a pair of subs that suit the room.
