Canoa70,
I don't know how the heck anybody can make fun of such a beautiful system. Why don't you ask whoever critizes your taste to post their own system. You obviously put a great deal of time and expense into your system. Chord electronics are some of the best out there and I was fortuinate to hear them at the trade shows. Enjoy.

Very nice system, and what an interesting turntable you have. Care to tell us more about the Rue Borges turntable ? I searched the internet and cannot find a website or info.

Thanks.

Nice system. I bet Floyd sounds great on it.

fabulous looking (and no doubt sounding) system.

I suggest if you are looking for advice on you room you take a couple more pictures of it for ease.

Good luck :o)

System edited: Next i will invest in the acoustics, i'm having a professional company make the room 100% acoustic. Any comments?

System edited: I know i'm in the done for now category, but i'm thinking maybe in swaping the chord amps for gryphon antlieon signature and sonata allegro and the speaker for dynaudio evidence temptation.

I've done big changes to the system will upadate them soon, with pics.

Canoa70 the ML 27.5 is a killer amp ,by the way.

I've spoke to this fellow Ciffanervi he hasn't even heard the SPM5000 (so please) and he uses a CPA4000 with a ML 27.5 so please don't make fun of other systems wihtout knowing anything about them.

canoa70

I don't think that is very cool system!Chord SPM 5000 is no cool amplifier.Interconnect and speaker cables are right for me.I have a Chord SPM 4000 amplifier and a Mark Levinson 380S preamplifier.Both are better with revealing connections.B&W 802....?.Enjoy the music Ciao

ciffanervi

Very cool system! That is one massive amp. Glad you're loving it, now get off the uprgrade merry-go-round and enjoy!
