I just finished reworking this system (again). Let me know if you have any suggestions or comments.

System edited: Haven't updated in a while, I've changed almost the whole system in the last few months. New denon AH-D7000 and Lorelei speakers most importantly. Also got a new headphone amp, tube preamp, and Audiophilleo converter

I live in about a 150 year old place in Boston, so I can imagine the wiring is not up to par. I did recently get an Audio magic stealth mini power conditioner (I've been meaning to update my online system for a while). I do notice some difference in dynamics and soundstage, and I found it used for $300 so it was definately worth the price. I don't beleive a new one would be though. I also just got an Audio Zone AMP-1.

As far as the Jolida, it is my first "true" high end player. Before this I used a Denon DVD player. Its 20 times better than that, but I don't really have any other means for camparison. I can tell you this, I have no desire to upgrade it. Incredible clarity and very smooth.
