In my sunroom, I had beautiful sound from a pair of Proac 1SC’s on sand-filled steel Target Audio stands, driven by a Pass Aleph 3 (30 wpc stereo), The source was a Mark Levinson 390S cd player/preamp. A REL Strata II filled in the bottom end nicely, and all cabling was Cardas Golden Cross. All powered through an API Power Wedge conditioner.
For background listening, I also had an SAE Mark VIII fm tuner hooked up to the other (digital) input of the Mark Levinson, using an inexpensive analog-to-digital converter for compatibility.
