    I'm done with mine (once the tuner arrives tomorrow). Got a Jolida int. amp, Norh speaks, and a tube CD player. Oh yeah, keep forgetting to mention the Onix Rocket sub. Now I'm focusing on getting more CDs. Sometimes we loose sight of what's most important -- it's the music, man.
    HT/2-channel Rig: Sony 50” LCD TV; Toshiba HD-A2 DVD player; Emotiva LMC-1 pre/pro; Rogue Audio M-120 monoblocks (modded); Placette RVC; Emotiva LPA-1 amp; Bada HD-22 tube CDP (modded); VMPS Tower II SE (fronts); DIY Clearwave Dynamic 4CC (center); Wharfedale Opus Tri-Surrounds (rear); and VMPS 215 sub

    See my sig. Still waiting on the back-ordered Benchmark DAC1. I will be upgrading speakers in the next 8 months or so. I'm looking at:

    1. Energy Connoisseur C-9
    2. Wharfedale Diamond 9.6
    3. Onix Rocket RS750MKII

    NONE of them in black. I'm tired of black speakers. I'm really leaning hard to the Energy C-9.

    It will never be "complete" the buying will just slow down! ;)

    Pre: McCormack TLC-1 or Musical Fidelity A3cr (still deciding between these two)
    Amp: McCormack DNA 0.5
    Speakers: Dynaudio 1.3mkII
    CDP: NAD C521

    looking to upgrade my CD player. Then I'd like to try a tube pre and also the Placette passive remote volume control as a preamp. I also plan on making some bass traps for my little, bass heavy room.

    You are in for a real treat.

    I'm thinking about grabbing some Dodd 50w monoblocks, but no commitment yet.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
