Have you ever duplicated another system that you heard?

I have and it sounds glorious. Would you do it?

Bought the speakers and then gradually upgraded the rest to ARC. Glorious. Learned enough from that system to upgrade piece by piece, and now DIY piece by piece. What a journey!

Me and 2 of my audiophile buddies spent 5 years trying to outdo each other. Then we started helping each other. One of them took a huge risk on a Gato FM6 out of Denmark. At first we were like crazy! No way! Then they broke in. Then one of us heard about the KR audio va900 then one of us bought the Resonessence Mirus Dac and Clarity Cable and mavros and then wammo! Sweet music. Unfortunately our craziest audiophile buddy out of the 3 died 5 months ago but he left me with a system that I will enjoy for a long time. God Bless Charles Threatt. Charles and my friend Bill Smith took me on a journey I finally finished happy. Enjoy your systems while your still breathing everyone. They are a sheer joy to all of us!
