upgraded.....
(more later - need to take some additional pictures)

if you find yourself in / around the city of chicago and would like to come by and beat on the V's - drop me a line - i'd be happy to set aside some time for interested parties to have a listen.

    • Legacy Audio V
    Big and bad-ass
    • Legacy Audio Marquis HD
    Holy hell.... this thing is HUUUUGE. Find a dealer - check it out... you'll be hardpressed to find a better center channel anywhere. period.
    • Parasound JC-1
    4 of these drive the V's
    • Parasound Halo A51
    Lots of power for hungry applications. The a51 will eventually turn my 5.1 system into a 7.1 rig with its remaining channels.
    • Parasound JC-2
    Since the C1 went away - i needed something clean for 2 channel. I probably don't need to say much more about this piece. It's built like a tank, runs hot, and sounds fantastic.
    • PS Audio PerfectWave DAC
    should probably upgrade this too at some point...
    • Legacy Audio Wavelet
    Dac / Room Correction - Oem'ed by Bohmer Audio.
    • Integra DTC 9.8
    Probably should update this someday.
    • M&K MX-350 thx
    Two of these babies vertically stacked really brings out the low-end in a 5.1 system. Drywall tape repair is a constant reality.
    • M&K SS-150
    Not a bad little surround tripole. For now these litle guys will stay in my system until legacy makes a dipole/tripole that doesn't have to be mounted on my walls.
    • Samsung HL-T7288W
    yes - i need a new tv.
    • Nvidia Shield
    it streams stuff...
    • Belkin PureAV pf60
    Pure crap - don't bother - avoid their power products at all costs. This unit is currently serving as nothing more than a glorified power strip. Originally purchased for noise in the lines caused by light dimmers, this unit ended up introducing more problems to video playback thn i originally had.
    • Dedicated 20 Amp Lines - w/ Hubbell Hospital Grade Outlets
    Ran some 10awg romex from an isolated sub-pannel to two hospital grade hubbell outlets. Results were quite nice.
    • Homebrew XLR - Canare L-4E6S w/ Neutrik NC3FXX
    For less than 70 dollars retail, this produced 6 custom xlr cables. Much better than off the shelf guitar-center livewire :). Eventually i'll play with some more exotic wire/connectors. For now, i'm quite happy with the situation.
    • Speltz Anticables
    Excellent bang for buck. Pain in the ass to work with. Still highly recommended

I Wasn't sure if cables were worth the money. Then i bought some Aduioquest Jag 24dbs (rca) and i loved them. There is a big diffence with cables.
