06-12-08: Dcstep
Yes Atmashphere, I do think that we have the same end goals and I also suspect that we're both doing very well at achieving them while on different paths. Perhaps you've seen my Virtual System and realize that I've got a relatively small space that is a constraining parameter of my current system. (I don't really feel constrained by my end result, but you always think that you can do more with "more").
In 2009 I expect to move to a home with a larger, dedicated listening space with free rein in the WAF department. I've said before in other threads, I'll be considering horns at that time. I'll also so be revisiting the best of Vienna Acoustics, Sonus Faber and a few others. It's been a long, long time since I've heard a good horn setup and I'll be certainly find some.
BTW friend, will you be at the RMAF this year? I'd love to buy you a beer, coffee or tea and pick your brain more. That should be a good weekend. That little show is really growing up.
Dave
