Description

This is my main system, which is constantly evolvig. I tend to swap in or out a component every couple of months or so. Latest change on the horizon will be speakers as I'm evolving to more of a home theatre capable system.

Components Toggle details

- Supratek Syrah
Tube two-box preamp with seperate power supply. Includes MC phono stage.
- Teres 255
Turntable
- Electrohome Marquee 8500 HT
CRT Rules! This beauty comes in custom case which makes it more room friendly.
- Adona 3 level, double stand
Granite and steel stand. I originally had my tt atop, but had to move it to lowest level to ensure no vibration.
- Airtech MG-1
Linear Tracking Tonearm
- Joule Electra VZN-160
160 WPC OTL monoblocks

Power Cable
- Cellar Cinemas HTPC 465

- Starsound Sistrum SP-01
Isolation stand - I'm using this one for the Preamp, although it's probably overkill. I have two of them.

Isolation Platforms for Speakes - I found these speaker platforms particulary effective. I couldnt' live without them.

Phono cable

Now have one of these under each monoblock - was surprised by the performance improvement.

Using one of these under my preamp and digital rig - used to have them under speakers, but won't fit under my new JM Lab Diva Utopia Be
- Acoustic Zen Absolute
1M Reference Interconnects

Direct Drive, digital power sub. Crazy big driver, very low distortion.

Very nice system. So the Bybee's get a "wow"? Care to elaborate? Subtle change or profound? I am deeply enjoying my Musician II, but have yet to hear Spectron's latest, much less with Bybees.
