Goosebump Factory
This is my music system which evolved over 25 years. Recently made the move to a larger room and spent a good deal of time & effort working on treating the new larger room to tame tremendous echo and many bass dips. Vinyl is spinning about 90% of the time here.
Big changes recently going to Dehavilland Aries 845G SET amps and Acarian Alon V mkiii speakers.
Previous pieces & systems included:
Merlins VSM-MX, Atma-Sphere MA1mkII.2, Atma-Sphere MP3, Herron VTSP1a-166,
JouleLA150, Pentagon PH3, CAT SL1MkIII, Audience AU24
CaryRocket88/SLP2002/QuadsESL63USA
AvalonRadians/SpectralDMA180 & DMC20II/Meridian508
BATvk5i & vk60/Von Schweikert vr4.5II
Chario Academy1/Air Tight ATM1
VTL ST80/ Acarian AlonII
Thiel 3.6 / Krell KSA 50
Vandersteen 2ci / Sunfire amp
