The day came... After 50 years of serious Audio addiction, I recently moved to a smaller residence and downgraded my Stereo System. I had to sell my Wilson Sasha's, Krell EVO 302 but kept the Cardas Golden Reference speaker cables, the VPI turntable, Grey's Power Company AC Conditioner and the Oppo.
This new place is too small for the Wilsons and Kell. So what gear does an old Audiophile replace it with. A new McIntosh MA 5200 and the Focal (used) 1008BE's. I hooked em up to what audio gear I had left and liked what I heard. The Focal 1008BE's delivered, no disappointment. My first CD was 'Electric Light Orchestra', I've been listening to them for decades.
I will be hooking up the VPI tomorrow and I'll report back on my vinyl experience. Great way to start the new year, used is good too.
