Impressive collection of fine tube amps.  That's my kind of playground!

The Triode Lab 2a3 was an excellent amplifier, one of my favorites--I regret selling it. 

I preferred the Triode Lab 2a3 over the Finale 300B EVO by a large margin. To my ears, and in my system, it had a cleaner/clear sound; vocals were scary-real and it was dead quiet. 

For the money, it's hard to beat the sound of the Triode Lab.

Hi there! Noticed you have the triode lab 2a3 and Finale F-300b integrated amps. How do you like them? I'm currently considering their 2a3, 45, and 300b amps (along with a couple other options from Mastersound and Allnic) but there isn't a whole lot of info on the triode/finale stuff out there!

Thank you. The CWs are on Townshend Audio Seismic Isolation Speaker Bars.

Great system!  Congrats.

What do you have the Cornwalls sitting on?  I cannot tell from the pictures. Very curious.

Mighty fine system. I like the 3 different amps to change around as you feel inclined.

Hi Dan, 

I've responded via PM.

I like your system a lot, but I need to ask what did the Townsend Seismic Speakers bars do for your Cornwalls? A person I met recently has the Podiums under his Von Scheikert speakers. He's really sold on them, and recommends I get some under my heavy custom built Tannoys.


They are quite expensive for the size 4 podiums I would need, so I'm hoping to learn what to expect, should I decide to buy them.

Thanks and regards,
Dan

The sound is even bigger than the physical size of the speaker.

The goal was to create something clean and very simple. 

I also run the TV through the Klipsch speakers. 

The Unit Nova sound very good with the Fortes.

Sleek and smart.  Nice job!

Nice job on wiring the TV without surface mount wiring, very classy looking system.

Interesting blend of modern technology and electronics w/ classic horn loaded speakers.

They are Klipsch Forte III.

I don't see your speakers listed in the components section.  Are those Volti's?

Thanks, the simplicity is definitely a big plus. The Uniti Nova is a great unit that functions as an integrated amp, DAC and streamer.

I like it. Clean and simple.
