|
| System Goals/Comments: | Develop a system that makes you forget the system. I think the future of audio is PC-based. |

| Other HT Gear: | Old Harman Kardon receivers used as power amp, sounds better but Onkyo used as preamp is not very good either |

| Other Interests/Hobbies/Occupation: | None at the moment, too much work |
