This being my first effort out is a combination of all the great input gathered from the Audiogon Web Site (thanks all) and my own crazy mind. I was disapointed until I took out the Sony CD carousel as it didn't have a coax digital out and went to the Pioneer Elite AND the P1-A,P3-A and Monolithic power supply. I'm VERY happy with the sound. This should do for a while.
Congrats on your first system. Two things have piqued my interest. First, did your Sony not have a digital output? Or was it that the Sony only had a toslink output? Second, how satisfied are you with the Adcom? Using it in passive mode only?
