This is the best system I have ever heard. I have owned and heard many expensive speakers and none come close to the Shahinian Diapasons. The bass is absolutely concussive. The Double Eagle subwoofers pressurize the room and are capable of impact that is akin to body blows. The mids and highs are breathtakingly real. The music emminates from the modules in a 3 dimensional bloom with a realism that blows away even the best electrostatics. The notion that Shahinians are for classical only is just plain wrong. I enjoy all types of music on these speakers.
I had an electrician install a dedicated panel for the system. He used all square D 20 amp breakers with individual runs of 10 gauge wire to cryogenically treated hospital grade Hubbel outlets. Each amplifier has its own breaker.
Very nice looking system, I'm sure it sounds as gorgeous as it looks! I noticed you use a Benchmark DAC-1. Can you comment on how it sounds on a home system, I have heard much about it, and I was considering to add this to my own rig, using my existing CD player as a transport. What digital interconnect do you use? Congratulation again. BTW: is this a home made rack?
