"Well, after a solid 20 years in this hobby, I beleive I am done"
But, I guess I really was not...
The most significant change has been the addition of a computer based set up. I cannot believe how good it sounds using the Cary's DAC. I have a Kimber USB (the new silver USB has been ordered) to a Bel Canto 24/29 Converter directly into the CDP's digital in. For storage I have a Licie 1TB Ext HD. I would guess I listen to my copied CDs 90% of the time.
Also new, is the Cary 306 Pro and more recently the Bryston 28B-SSTs and the Audiav Zarcona Rack...
Since the BEFORE photo, the room has been painted, artwork placed on the walls as well as misc other items...
I am using this as a sever only>Kimber USB> Bel Canto 24/96 > Cary DAC

I must for any good Computer based set up.

Boy did I miss what happened with your system, you can tell where my focus is presently!!!!! Only the Pass survived the cut? I'd bet it sounds as clean as it looks, I had the X2.5 and X150, the pre was very good. Did you have the equipment before the rack arrived so you were able to hear the improvement the rack made. (it is a very cool together look BTW)
