My Latest Attempt at Flexible, Musically Involving

Description

This system has been designed with separate preamplification for digital and analog sources. My objective is to achieve involving musicality rather than hi-fi spectacular. My next upgrade will be bi- or tri-wiring the Dali Euphonia 5s with Audience AU24, replacing the VPI with the new EAR 'table, and replacing the Richard Gray with the Audience Adept Response.

I welcome any comments or suggestions.

Williamsims,

Just wondering how you are enjoying the Art Audio Concerto amps? I have just purchased a pair and will receive them shorty. Any comments would be welcome.
