    Default Greetings from South Wales

    Hi,

    Long time lurker here and on many other forums.

    My system is currently a mixture of the old and the new. Pioneer P3 turntable, a Paradise phono stage, although I'm heading down the SUT rabbit hole. Currently using DL-304, AT33PTGii, Supex 900 Super cartridges. Pre is a Trinnov Amethyst and power a Yamaha B-2. Speakers are Yamaha NS2000 along with a pair of REL Studio iii subs and a pair of Wilson Benesch Torus infrasonic generators. Digital is via an Apple TV stick although i do also have a SB+ (by Patrick Dixon) and the Amethyst has capabilities in this area. Lots of Avondale, including the Grad 1, Voyagers (NCC300), RMS Revelation ii speakers, cables and the very rare Genesis TT and the Avondale magnetic bearing tonearm

    I'm part way treating my room with traps from various sources including some soon to arrive from Ekustik as the race between me and tinnitus continues to gather pace.

    Welcome to AoS Chris. Your system sounds very interesting, and looks great. Lots of friendly audio buffs on here to chat with. What music do you listen to?
    Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

    Analog Inputs: Pro-Ject Signature 10 TT & arm, Benz Micro LP-S, Michel Cusis MC, Goldring 2500 and Ortofon Rondo Blue cartridges, Hitachi FT5500 mk2 Tuner

    Digital:- Marantz SA-KI Pearl CD player, RaspberryPi/HifiBerry Digi+ Pro, Buffalo NAS Drive

    Amplification:- AudioValve Sunilda phono stage, Krell KSP-7B pre-amp, Krell KSA-80 power amp

    Output: Wilson Benesch Vector speakers, KLH Ultimate One Headphones

    Cables: Tellurium Q Ultra Black II RCA & Chord Epic 2 RCA, various speaker leads, & links

    I think I am nearing audio nirvana, but don’t tell anyone.

    Music is very much mood driven and spans a pretty wide range.

    Head to Green Man every year having abandoned Glastonbury 20 years back. First festival was Knebworth in 79

    Recent ish gigs have been Gruff Rhys, Roopa Panezar, Goat, Witch, Go Go Penguins, BCUC.
