I really liked the Linn LP12 (plus Lingo etc), CD12, Klimax control, Klimax chakra 500 solo's (times about Cool and Komri speakers when i heard them, but there is probably better out there that i need to discover.

I'd be too busy blasting my new Lamborghini round the irish countryside to think about sitting down listening to over-priced electronics........

Hello,

I think i buy a Accuphase dp 500 cd player with 

Accuphase pre-power amplifier. loudspeakers what delivers

a deep strong sound stage.  Maybe also a DAC from Krell

what gives the sound more reality. The cables are not important

anymore because Accuphase eats everything and with that i

mean everything. 

 

By the way--can you recommend me some loudspeakers what

delivers a deep strong sound stage.

 

Sincerely

Patrick

I saw some EB1's yesterday and boy are they a size. Nowhere near as big as PMC's flagship but big nonetheless! I could stick them in my front room and..................well, that would be it!

They'd double as an object large enough to hide behind when my wife came in. ....rolling pin.
