All the mods I have done have come together. I have a new audio rack on wheels so I can get to my wiring. I have replaced every wire with my silver IC's. I am running AQ type 4's, and CV's with DBS for my mains. I am driving my stereo drivers with a GFA-5800, My highs, rears, sub for ha ha's, and tweets with my GFA-7500. The dims are temporarily being driven by a GFA-555. I blew my GFA 565 by crossing wires. Oh well it with be redone with HQ caps, and all new transistors. My XO's are now passive, and I lucked out on them. They may need a little adjustment, but are so close I don't think much may be in order. I used to complain about my Sony SACD/DVD changer, but with new IC's I am blown away. I am just so happy! I am thinking Parasound on the tops like Joe's. I just need to settle in a little before I get stupid with the little cash I have to spend.

    Congrats! It's nice almost seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

    It has been a long trip. but I am finally not lacking... except a good TT, CDP, maybe a DAC. Vinly scares me!

    Edit: I was just listening to Henry Rollins... Under the Bridge. I have heard of drums not being life like in speakers. I used to agree. I just had the crap scared out of me. I had it at a moderate level, and the drummer hit the snare with a technique where the stick hits the rim, and the snare at the same time. It made me jump! Did I mention I am so Happy! Is jazz at the Pawn shop similar to this? If it is I must have.

    Congrats, quite a feeling I am sure. :)

    Maybe I should get some wheels for my stand, it is starting to get really heavy, and there is plenty more wiring in the works. :/
