pdspiegel - Primary Audio System

I am envious of your ability to shape your sound by your own head, hand and heart. I am plug and play, mostly, and have to leave it to designers and manufacturers. It must be nice to have some comm...

Agreed. this is an interesting system with components that are outside the norm a bit. Clue us in - learning about new things is at least part of the point here.Thanks,

That looks like a beautiful system, well considered, and likely full of life, as I have always found horns to be. Nicely done!

That's so funny! I am a born and raised Leominster boy, and still have family there. My folks are buried in Fitchburg (I secretly think of Leominster/Fitchburg as the same town). And then I ended u...

I responded to a comment you had made about my system quite a while ago, on my page. But let me post here as well. That is such a warm, welcoming space with the kind of equipment that emphasizes mu...

Very nice system! I bet the Parasound amp and that speaker/sub combo would sound great together. Is the Empire turntable an idler drive? I am a big idler drive fan myself...

It reads like a wonderful system. I'd love to see more if it, especially the way you set it up in the room. If you can, please share more images.

Well, I think your system and my system are about the same distance away from the state of the art - which some would say is pretty far. But we both have good musics systems, and we are both able t...

I had a long run with Magnepan 3.6's - still miss them sometimes. I'd love to hear what the 30.7's can do. You must have a pretty darn big room. That's great - filling a big room with the big Maggi...

Hey bdp24, Thanks for the room comment. The Revox was re-built by the gentleman at JM Technical Arts. He was trained by Revox. On this unit, he replaced the recording head with a 2-track head, so t...

Subterranean - you have taken the things I am tending towards, and more fully realized them in your system. I appreciate all the low-powered tube equipment, into those DeVore's.

Thanks for looking, and for commenting. My wife and I keep the spirit of the living room console of my youth with what we call "the house stereo." In  the living room, we have a cabinet that contai...

Ohh - got it. They are so long I hadn't thought of them as "jumpers." But you are right. When I got the 2.8's, Walter said that they had replaced the Nakamichi-terminated red wire jumpers with Wire...

Thanks, doyle3433. I saw that at one time, you were a horn user. I think that one day, I will find a good pair and swap them in on occasion.
