Importing@veritascrimson.com's 2 channel stereo System
IP Address: 76.23.155.171 Last Update: June 06, 2021 at 06:03:52
Amplifier: Power amps Crimson new 880 mono blocks there in 4
Separate pieces 2 contain the power supply's and 2 have the amplifiers
Preamplifier (or None if Integrated): Crimson 710
Speakers: Tocaro 40s and a pair of Tocaro 42s the 42 are a 2 way they don't have a crossover which is great zero distortion and they have at least as far as I know the first Rosewood laminated tweeters. Once I understood how
different they where I realized that they play music where most other speakers play Hifi. Now I-can never go back to a regular speaker
Sources:
CD Player/DAC: None
Turntable/Phono Stage: Linn LP 12 Ecos Tonearm with a Reson Lexy moving coil I did put on the new Ridged DC motor and power supply it was a big improvement over my Naim I also picked up there Linn belt I will let you know has it has 4 sides and I am still trying which is better
Other Source(s): I firmly believe that Mains make a huge difference so I am using the D&M mains for the preamp and power amps made a huge improvement
Other Accessories/Room/Misc.:
Speaker Cables/Interconnects: Music link interconnects and speaker wire
Other (Power Conditioner, Racks etc.): None I do not believe in power conditioners I think they do more damage and destroy the timing
Tweaks: None
Room Size (LxWxH): 14' x 12' x 8"
Room Comments/Treatments: Normal curtains and an few rugs book shelves just
a normal room I do have a 3 person couch.
Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections): I love all kinds from classical to blues to Sunny Boy Williams. To female vocals the better the source the better the music as you can tell no digital to much distortion.
System Goals/Comments: I have spent more money trying different equipment and right now I am the happiest I have ever been. I now have a music system not Hifi
System Strengths: Plays music not Hifi. You can pick out which seat the violin player is in 1st Second etc. you can hear the music closest to live VS any system I have ever heard or had . I have never had a system that I turn on in the morning and turn it off at night. Absolutely no fatigue
System Weaknesses: None so far I actually think Ihave found a stytem that
can compete with my Larivee guitar I am a musician
and have spent a small fortune trying to find a system
that truly plays music. I have to admit I am finally happy which makes the WAF extremely happy
Video/HT System: Separate
TV/Projector: Samsung 43" 4K
Processor/Receiver/Amplifiers: Same as above
Speakers (Center, Surrounds, Sub): Same as above
Sources (DVD/VCR): Cable and my Linn
Other HT Gear: Just a bait and a pair of Credos on the downstairs Flat
screen
Comments on HT System: I think if you find something that makes you happy then
stay with it. If your not try single divers It took a big step
but boy was it worth it
Other Interests/Hobbies/Occupation: We have horses and rescue animals and I have learned
a big lesson. Don't let your old ways get in the way of getting a music system. I can thank Creston for having the guts to try single drivers . He completely turned every idea I had upside down but now I have a system that plays real music real bass and highs. But best of all NO DISTORTION. HE WILL BE SADLY MISSED.
