I've built this system after a number of years and a lot of trial and error. After going through many modern tube and solid state integrateds in the $1k -$3k range the Scott came around and really amazed me with it's bandwidth and musicality.

The cables and tweaks all help the sytem reach it's full potential bringingout a very open and transparent sound.

The Vecteur is the latest addition and it is quite a player. Excellent extension at the frequency extremes and very transparent and accurate sounding.

The centerpiece of my system really are the Carolina Audio Speakers.. They really have to be heard to be believed. They disappear with an amazing coherence from top to bottom. Fantastic accurate bass. Simply the best speaker I have heard.

The system throw a wide and deep soundtage with excellent dynamics and tonal accuracy. I couldn't be happier.
