Music Preferences and Comments:
|
Music Used (Genre/Selections): | Rock, Jazz, Blues |
System Goals/Comments: | I run my preamp in passive mode, which is why I use the Nordost interconnects (they have the right capacitance and inductance for passive). I'm going for the most neutral sound possible, although I have to admit my system is very laid back right now. |
System Strengths: | Great soundstaging and imaging (once I got the speakers set up correctly!). |
System Weaknesses: | Low WAF due to the Maggies. Difficult speaker placement. I worry about the kids knocking the Maggies over. |

Separate |

Comments on HT System: | I desparately need to upgrade my TV. I'm thinking about a 32" SDTV from Panasonic or a Sony XBR400 when they come out. |
