    Default Hello from Vienna

    Hi there,

    first of all, I have really enjoyed the discussions on this board a lot over the last weeks. Provided a lot of guidance, and other peoples opinions. So I thought I better contribute .

    Let me introduce myself: I am Christian living in Vienna/Austria with 2 small kids (old enough now to restart my hifi-passion). I was infected by the audiophile virus a while ago
    when replacing some Wharfedale Diamond speakers with used KEF iQ30s from a friend. This was my personal epiphany and since then quest for the holy grail for "better" sound is on.

    I enjoy experimenting to see what's possible, currently starting DIY on tube preamps and buffers, some opamp rolling, etc. I am not looking for truth but enjoy different opinions as there is
    always a grain of truth to someone's experience.

    My laboratory:
    - Thorens TD160 MKV S
    - Project Tubebox S2 with Genalex Gold Lions ECC83
    - Lesahifi GAUSS Gold 6n6p SRPP Preamp
    - Topping D50 DAC
    - NAD 116 Preamp with OPA627 opamp upgrades
    - NAD 208 amp (currently kapput with a problem in protection mode, a Topping TP60 acting as a backup)
    - KEF LS50

    Looking forward to some heated discussions

    Best,
    Christian

    Welcome to AoS Christian.

    If you want some heated discussion, start talking about different cables, connectors and turntable mats!

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Well, I just wanted to start a thread on this one, guess it has never been discussed before.

    Thanks for the warm welcome!
