To be honest, I've been off the hifi stage for quite some time, due to time restraints and a new kid on our block, leaving no room for my speakers and hence other good stuff.
But we moved, and I'm near retiring, so there is room for a restart.First thing, we'll build a room above our garage, which will be my study- and listening room.
My system consists of a Thorens 128 Mk III turntable, with SME 3009 Mk III arm and Grado element; Johan Ketelaar pre-amp and Phase Linear 400 model two main amp. A TEAC VRDS-10 reads my CD's, and a pair of Rogers Monitor transmission lines (home build, from REMO in Voorburg) move the air molecules.
Though I do have some pop music (rather outdated, Focus, Soft Machine, Yes, Pink Floyd etc.) and a little jazz, my main interest lies in classical music. Piano, vocal, brass, organ, but also other work from Bach to Rachmaninov
At the moment I'm fiddling on the other end of the hifi-spectrum, trying to get a decent sound off a Raspberry PI3 with a DAC connected to it. My first real question will be about that...
