| System Goals/Comments: | change all cable system to pure silver (i.e. ICs, power cords, speaker cables). my homebrew cables bested my commercial ones and these aren't even broken-in yet. I figure that pure silver wires should be much more. One of these days, I'd like to have those Nearfield acoustics - if not, i'd like to have a 'copy' ;-) |
| System Strengths: | I believe mine has a balance of mid/high/lows based on my listening environment and attitude; the subs sure did improve the lows even better. |
| System Weaknesses: | I have a small listening area (shared with my dining area) since we live in a condominium. I'd like to go back to my old house where I have my own listening room - or perhaps buy a new house a make my own listening room. |
