New amps and pre amp currently in the system. Plus Moon Mind2 streamer added. The Gato CDD-1 is a hold over from previous system and does double duty as a CD player and DAC. Vinyl playback is done in another system. ( in case your wondering why I have vinyl and no TT here)
This system started as my 3rd system in a vacated kids bedroom in 2015 and has evolved into my main system over the years. I have attached additional pictures showing some of the journey.
“What are your thoughts on that Gato stack? I've been reading a lot about them and their integrated DIS-400S looks really good”-sunshdw
Hey sunshdw, I really like the quality , look and sound from the Gato gear. I do prefer their class A/B stuff tho. I had a DIA 250s in a different system and although it was a nice kit and sounded decent, I just never really fell in love with it. That was my second venture with a Class D offering( Wadia A340’s the other) and I think I just like Class A or A/B better. I have never heard the 400 , but by all accounts it’s reported to sound better. If you can swing a good deal on one I think it’s definitely worth a shot. Especially if you comparing it to other Class D offerings. That’s just IMHO too, take it for what’s it worth. Haha
Awesome looking system and room and thanks for the look back on some of your previous systems. Those B&W's are such classics would love to hear a pair someday.
