Merlin Based System
Current system after 25-years of buying, selling and upgrading.

I am waiting for an Ars Sonum 30 Watt integrated and I may replace the separates - looking for a simpler approach to audio - but I may not be able to let go of the CAT which is one of the best amplifiers in the world. We'll see. Happy for now, and may stop searching something different - at least for a while.
