Happy Listening! zavato

I just read your profile and we both started out with the same type of systems around the same time. I purchased a Pioneer receiver, Dual turntable and Altec speakers right out of HS in 74 for $700 which was a lot of money for me back then. It bested my all in one Zenith system that was passed down from my older brother. I really enjoyed that system for many years as I do now. I guess my audiophile life has come full circle :-)

zavato,

I hate to be a downer but we have all said the same thing... but, eventually a product will come along that gets us curious and bingo another upgrade!

Perhaps it will be just a software change.

For for me (I owned the Pass X350.8) it was going to tubes in the Amplifier. I changed from the Pass to Atmasphere M-60's and what a shear difference in sound quality. So much more pleasurable sound.
Of course then I needed to source some high efficiency 8 ohm speakers and a way I go...

Zavato, your system looks great and it is always nice to get to the point where you can just turn it on and listen to music. I too was at that point until just recently and had a failure of an older tube amp, bought new amps while old ones are being rebuilt by VTL and have almost got them settled in, looking forward to just the music again.

Zavato, glad you got things to that point. You are right, it's a great place to be! And while the journey is definitely important in its own way, I have to say that final destination counts for a helluva lot! ;)

Usually to get there is more a matter of sheer persistence than anything else I think, but it IS doable as you know, and I'd say it's worth the reminder when things can conspire to make us doubt the outcome or lose our way.

Happy listening!
