I am 21 yrs old. I have started this hobby when i was 16. I had a Onkyo Receiver and small Infinity speakers. I am very happy with my current setup, and after i get the final position and room woork i will sit down and enjoy.
This is my AA Paganini CD Player. I was looking for a CD PLayer with natural warmth, which had good craftsmanship and was reasonably priced. This is the one i picked.
Jolida JD3000b
This is my Jolida Linestage Pre AMP. It uses 2x EI Elite and 2x Golden Dragon Tubes. It is build very good and has a nice sound, with a deep stage.
Krell KSA-150
Well what can i say. I always wanted a big Krell AMP. I love the cold beating sound of this baby, eventough it gets warmed up by the Jolida.
Nice System! I love Maggies as well. I like your simple approach. I even went without a preamp -- just CDP, amps and the Maggies.
Following so many comments on this site, I added Mye stands and found it a very worthwhile upgrade. You might consider modifying the crossovers. Mine came modified so I do not know the speakers in their stock form. But, Maggie owners rave about the difference.
You mention that "final positioning in the room" -- that seems for me to be an endless pursuit. I've been shifting for 5 months and still haven't stopped. Have you?
Nice to see you over here from the Asylum, and nice to see a young guy like yourself involved in this hobby.
I've followed your posts at the asylum with interest. It's great to see a fellow Magnepan owner, particularly one who is so passionate about their equipment and music.
I re-state my offer to you, should you ever get too bored during your stay in the USA, take a drive up to Green Bay Wisconsin and hang out with us Cheeseheads for a few days. We're mostly a little on the weird side, but we know how to enjoy ourselves as a rule!
