Description

My Musical Fidelity A5.5 integrated amp served me well for several years but I got the itch. Early in 2020, a Pass Labs XP10 and X250.8 took its place.   I upgraded my phono preamp to a Herron VTPH-2a recently and am loving it!

    • Thorens TD-147
    Pretty much a stock TD147 with TP16mkIII tonearm.  Currently fitted with a Grace F-8c cartridge
    • Herron Audio VTPH-2a Phono Preamp
    This took the place of a PS Audio GCPH that I had been using for several years.  I love this upgrade!
    • Nakamichi BX-300
    Willie Hermann fixed this one up for me. Highly recommended.
    • Arcam Arcam FMJ 23t
    just replaced the laser...a much easier DIY job than I anticipated.
    Update:
    Replaced the entire transport with a NOS Sony that I found on ebay.  Much better result.
    • Pioneer BD 35 Blue Ray BD-35
    Seldom used
    • Pass Labs XP-10
    • Pass Labs x250.8
    • Analysis Plus Oval 9
    Heavy cables that you could jump start a car with.  Lots of copper!
    • Totem Acoustics Mani 2 Signature
    Still love these speakers

Funny story your obtaining the speaker stands. As one of my systems the speakers sat on milk crates. You are lucky in stereo gear.

Handsome, system with some more than good gear. Cool.
