Description

It has been a journey arriving here. Sideways sometimes, even back others but had fun, mostly, and learned along the way. It sounds good enough now it is very enjoyable. It can make me forget what I'm doing rather easily as I listen to it. Some cd's are better at that. After hearing an Ayon setup with JBL 4367's, I have done all I can to emulate that as much as possible with the gear I have. Oh I tried. It is engaging, I can listen until my glutes give up. It has plenty of real too. Some cd's if they were any closer to the real thing you could have them sign your shirt.
 And yes, that is a Yamaha CR 2040 and ADS 810's. Bought new in '84. A little static in receiver controls. Still have manuals, boxes, antenna, and receipts.

Wow, great gear! Those NHT's are HUGE!

Talk to me about your progression in amps... were you always bi-amping? I have a pair of Polk LSi25's that is a semi similar design as your NHT's. I recently went from a 4 channel Adcom giving 90W/ch, and upgrading to a 2 channel Rotel giving 220W/ch. My Polk's are low efficiency 4 ohm speakers, the extra watts proved a bigger upgrade over bi-amping.

Curious to hear what you had and thoughts on changes along the way!
