Did you ever consider the Dartzeel CTH-8550 ? even though you prefer going the seperates route.

R. I. P. Dave Brubeck, 91. 

One of the artists who's recordings marked the beginning of my appreciation for jazz, and the true art of the music itself.  Having been a typical rock fan for most of my teens, it was through a wacky high school English teacher's stereo that I first heard Monk, Charlie Parker, Brubeck etc., learning anew that jazz is literature, poetry, an unbridled form of expression which found a home in my music mind and has since never strayed. 

This is experience also began marked the beginning of my interest in hi-fi.  I'm talking my English teacher's tube equipment and the pair of Dahlquist DQ-10's  we listened through. 

My my condolences to Mr. Brubeck's closest friends and family, my sincere appreciation for the body of work remaining for us to enjoy ad infinitum.  A class act and a fine musician. 

All day today, "Live At Carnegie Hall."
