Dear Audiogoners!!!!
Here is my latest Hi-Fi Stereo system. I upgraded from a monitor set-up (Revel M106) to the Focal Aria 936 which provided huge improvements on the mids and a fuller better controlled bass. Imaging and soundstage improve dramatically as well. Current noises and hums has gone to zero with a dedicated 20 Amp circuit, PS Audio Power Port Classic and the APC S15 Power Conditioner.
I'm using the Oppo BDP-105D as a Pre-Amp/DAC for CD, Digital/HD files and streaming. I was thinking on adding a Parasound Halo P5 Pre-Amp, but not sure if it will improve or degrade the sound. What's your thoughts and opinion about adding a Pre-Amp? I do not planned on adding a turntable in the near future.

I just recently added the Parasound Halo P5 Pre-Amp which gave me better volume control. Also upgraded the interconnects from Cardas Clear Sky into the Cardas Golden Reference XLR 1M which indeed gave a huge improvement in clarity and a more open soundstage.

Audiophile bug bite me again and went in the look for a really big improvement in sound. I then decided to upgrade the Parasound Halo P5 into the Halo JC2 BP. Wow, this change was the most noticeable improvement so far...
Also, I'm in the look for a nice and proper Audio furniture, since the tables I'm using are temporary.
Thanks for looking and any suggestions/improvement/questions are more than welcome....
