For the enjoyment of music. Lot's of changes over the years. I typically won't buy something unless I can listen to it in my system. Spending a lot of time recently searching out well recorded and interesting music via hi res downloads. I have a really nice vinyl collection mostly Jazz and pop. Digital I'm filling out my classical titles and more modern recordings. Jan '16

Jfrech, Just wondering about the Purist Proteus Provectus cables. Are the Praesto Revisions a newer model? Can't seem to find info on them. If so are they an improvement? Thanks. Vito
Jfrech, Just wanted to wish you best of luck with the Maxx 3's. They look amazing and no doubt sound glorious! I auditioned the Maxx 2's a few months ago and was very impressed. I decided to audition the Maxx 3's in near future. Going from the watt/puppy to the maxx's did you need to treat the ceiling with absortion/diffusion products considering the increase in height of the maxx's? Thanks. Vito
Congratulations on wonderful setup. Are the Maxx 2's an easier load than the watt puppy 8's? I've owned watt puppy 7's for about 5 years and looking to move to the Maxx 2's. Can you comment on the impactfulness of the bass as compared to the watt puppies? Thanks. Vito
