Thanks @hilde45   
I did have the XA30.8 and the X260.8 at the same time. I sold the XA30.8 and am just using the X260.8 right now. The monoblocks retain all the awesome sound qualities of the XA30.8 but have more /better control over the Sabrinas.

Badass system. Do you have one amp or two monoblocks? Do you alternate between them? Photos show both.

@jafant thanks! I am using Furutech FP-S032n on DAC and FP-S55n on preamp. Still undecided on the power cords for the X260.8 amps so for now using Audience Forte f3.

A beautiful room and system. Quite an interesting mix of Cables/Cords.

Happy Listening!

@jaytor Thank You! Yes - the room treatments helped with overall balance, coherence and focus. It’s a worthwhile addition.

audphile1

Your new treatments look great! Are you happy with the changes to the sound?

@rixthetrick thanks!
The MoFi UltraDeck is a really nice table. Look into it. You won’t go wrong. 
The weights are actually door stops. They have rubber bottoms and don’t scratch. The added weight helps keep the components in place and also looks cool. 

audphile1

Pure and simple system, yeah you have some room treatment, decent components and it looks well thought out. I'm digging the TT, I'm going to look at their product range to learn more. I love my PSM-156 too.

What are those weights (one of them on your DAC) I am curious?

Thanks for sharing your system page, I'm sure you enjoy your music.
