RE: My current system

Hello,

HiFi and Home theatre have been my hobby for two decades.

I gave up on multi channel speakers system years ago to concentrate on two channel one.

Several years ago I fell in love with Perfomance 6 speakers,

but I wanted standmounters so I waited.

When the Performance 2 came out, I was very excited.

There was a catch, they were not allround speakers.

I didn't want to ditch them so I tried hard to compensate the shortcomings by system matching.

(You can check out the WhatHiFi and HifiChoice reviews for the shortcomings, they are all online.)

Here's the result, Mordaunt Short & Denon & NAD working together..
