its like looking at a perfectly figured woman, a classic car you just cleaned, or a harley youve been wanting for so long, damn sexy. Im very new at this, so I hope you dont mind coaching me a little here. 1st of are those amps on the floor? if so what kind? whats that on the 2nd shelf from the top? can this system be used for HT as well? thanks and wish i could hear what your setup sounds like (drool, slurp)
You must be new if you haven't figured out that audio guys LOVE to talk about their systems. Almost as much as listening to them. So it would be my pleasure to answer any questions.
This is my 2-channel rig in the living room. My home theater is a totally different system. This one consists of (from the top)
Clearaudio Champion II with SME 309 arm and Benz Micro Glider cartridge
Shanling CD-T1500 CD player
McIntosh C36 preamp
Juicy Music Tercel phono preamp
PS Audio Quintessence Power Center
Shanling SP-80 mono block amplifiers on the floor
Speakers are DIY: JBL 2235H, JBL 077, Altec 802-8G on 511B horns.
Cabinets are baltic birch and MDF veneered with sapele pommele
The Prodigy's are in and life is good.
I kinda figured audio people like talking about their system coz my lowly2x system I babble about to people who really dont even care lol. I was just being polite. However I am new as in brand spanking new. learning a bit here and there. I really dig your shanlings. I havent heard them yet but im already sure they sound great and i want them. how i wish i could get a taste in the near future. why do you have 2 preamps? Is it because 1 for the clearaudio and the other for the CD player? how do tubes compare to ordinary amps soundwise? Also could your 2 channel rig double up as HT? Many thanks from an eager learner. avatars not out yet so it must be bootleg. good copy?
Ward , very nice. I see economic crunch hasn't spoiled your attitude to spark the economy. I love the Prodigies. Ken had a set and I loved listening top them. They do need a large room to shine and LOTS of power and current.
But where did the CLS's move to?
They are presently in the sun room until I determine what I'm going to do with them.
Anyone interested in some lightly used speakers that only played chamber music on Sundays?
Just in case someone reads this old post, the CLS have a new home with Texas42.They are presently in the sun room until I determine what I'm going to do with them.

How did your custom Dynaco ST-70 turn out ?...I wish someone would provide a similar chassis layout...I have heard th Bob Latino kit and it is excellent but do not like the old style looks.
Now the living room gets a change. The McIntosh C36 and Tercel phono pre are out and an SST Ambrosia pre with built in phono has taken their place. It is a very crisp clean pre with lots of detail and no color.
This is definately one of my favourite member's system threads. Great pics & very nice kit. Respect! Just love the finish on the DIY speakers. Fantastic stuff.
