Let's talk audio systems!

[ronjor]

Tell us what audio system you use.. Is it surround, stand alone, high end, mid fi or other?

Mine is mid fi. Adcom solid state amp, Dynaco Tube pre-amp, Dynaco CD-T vacuum tube cd player hooked up to Magnepan MMG speakers.

Cds' are my primary listening source.

I also listen to Tivoli Audio products when I am fooling around on Wilders.

Do you have a link for Studio Labs?

[dog]

Hi Ron, ;)

Sorry I looked (googled) they don't seem to have one ... They're a local speaker manufacture (Toronto / North York) just off Eglington and Bermundsy (sp?) ... I don't even know if they're still around anymore? I bought the speakers almost 10 years ago now ... maybe even a light longer than that. They sure are great speakers though. ;)

I've used Kimber in the past. Due to the passion involved on cabling, I will refrain from mentioning mine!! ;D

Funny stuff, TAS. ;D ;D Since I still own (and use!) 2 Sansui speakers purchased overseas back in '71, I am WAY too audio/techno-challenged to comment in this forum. I'll just sit back, relax & read the stuff posted by you experts. ;)

Yes, I did finally part with the TEAC reel-to-reel tape deck.... 8)

[nadirah]

My audio system is just two powerful speakers that can produce full, loud, subwoofer-standard sound. ;)

[None]

Spendor BC-1's all the way. Run it with Aragon amps, Linn-Sondek table & arm. Never get tired of this set-up. Junked the Maggies (MG-IIIa's, just too big for my room). CD's never did sound right on this system.

Also like a good shot (or two) of Vodka and a nice easy chair to settle into!

[steverio]

Just wonderful enthusiastic music lovers here! :)

My Rotel Receiver, CD changer, Paradign speakers, Audioquest audio interconnects and speaker cables are my babies! I love them!
