Thanks for the positive feedback, Bill and Mark. my plesasure to help spread the word. Yes, if Joseph builds it, we will come!
Just ordered cca's for postions #1&3 and early 60's gray plate Siemens for #2&4. Plus Herbie tube dampers. Will be interesting to see what that does.
Also I have been getting great results with a strange tweak. Instead of the myrlewood blocks under the preamp, I am using a tweak that cost me about 20 cents. From Lowes, I obtained a six foot length of polystyrine pipe insulation (a spongy black tube). I cut 1 1/2 inch rings off of this and placed four of them under the preamp. I also have them under my DAC and Transport. My oak shelves are not isolated well from the floor. This wells well for me in this situation.
