Fun system

Bit of an overhaul here. Replaced the critical components and now it’s a very different system with very different character. I like it a lot, speakers are just breaking in.

Just adding a quick note - the MIT AVT2 cables (note they are not in the pictures yet, those are the old cables) are making a HUGE difference! For one thing, the annoying resting state buzz/hum in ...

Thanks for the feed-back Hitman. So you think the Quad players are a good match? I had a 99 model, the one that only works with the pre-amp (no separate power or connector other than the Quadlink) ...

I just skipped to the end, but what exactly is so terrible about the rack? If it's unstable like you say, fine, but otherwise why would it be so bad? I think it looks fine, although the stacking so...
