Hi all. I don't know if anybody other than the locals in IL remember me, but I haven't been around here at all in the last couple of years. Since then We've had a baby and built a house. Now that I have a new big house to make sure I have proper entertainment in, I should probably share the process. Below is my start. I don't have the HT basement yet in the new house like I did in my condo, so I have to mix my 2-channel with my HT for now.
I will miss the Nak preamp for now, but really wanted to upgrade it anyway. I must say, though, that the HK AVR is filling in very nicely as a 2-channel pre and I'm using the ADCOM GFA_7000 instead of the 555 so that I can drive speakers in the master bedroom as well. So, this is a start. The LSi's are singing. I'll plan on having a local get together once I get some of our crap put away.
Anyway, just thought I stop in and say hi. I hope to be back sooner than 2 years from now this time.

Thanks for popping in to say hello.Political Correctness'.........defined
"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."

Hey Aaron, nice to see you back. Can't wait to see the house. I should be putting together a Summer bash at my new place as well. Soooooooooo many projects to do.
H9"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul! -
