Good to see you in 2025. What gear is current in your System?

Happy Listening!

@jafant Haven’t changed anything in years. Still running Ayre QB-9 Twenty and Kenwood 500 plus Ayre PX-5 into an Ayre AX-5 Twenty feeding the heavily modded CS2.4. I still love the sound and haven’t heard anything at this price point (and well beyond) I would trade for.

Still enjoying Cardas cabling as well? If so, which models/series of cables/cords?

Happy Listening!

Beetle - our project was good both ways. Thank you for your careful and complete evaluations and reports. Even though we both think that you got seriously upgraded performance, there are actually big gains to be attained with less expenditure. One of these days I hope that you'll try out the next round.

I know it's been a long time - but things are coming into focus.

Duramax - May i ask which FPB model did you compare the MDA-300's to?
