| Last Update: May 26, 2004 at 20:41:38 | IP Address: 68.48.53.212 |
| Amplifier: | CTC BBQ |
| Preamplifier (or None if Integrated): | Anthem Pre-2L (Mullard Tube) |
| Speakers: | Polk Audio SDA 1C (Modified) |
| Sources: | |
| CD Player/DAC: | Sony SCD-C555ES |
| Turntable/Phono Stage: | None |
| Other Source(s): | None |
| Other Accessories/Room/Misc.: | |
| Speaker Cables/Interconnects: | MIT Shotgun S3 (All) |

| Room Size (LxWxH): | 24 x 14 x 8 |
| Room Comments/Treatments: | None, as of yet. |
| Music Preferences and Comments: | |
| Music Used (Genre/Selections): | I am pretty loose in the music department, although I prefer Rock and Alternative genre's. |
| System Goals/Comments: | I have been piecing this system together for two years. I wanted to get the best that I could for my money, within reason. After two years, I am finally able to listen TO it, instead of just look AT it. I have many hands to thank for helping me get to this point. Soupbone (Tom), Rhyno(Ryan), Frank Dai (Signal Cable), Hoosier (Russ), Joe Abrams (MIT), Ken Swauger/ Micah Cohen (Polk Audio), Paul Lemanski (Adona Corporation) and my best friend Merganser ( Jesse)...without whom, I would have never discovered this amazing hobby. John Curl and Robert Crump have also been really helpful in compiling information for this amplifier, and the help is greatly appreciated. |
| System Strengths: | I really love the clarity, and accuracy of these vintage Polk's. They have the updated tweeter, and the SDA effect is really quite nice on many recordings. I have auditioned ALOT of speakers, just for FYI, and I still enjoy these the best. Viva la Vintage! |
| System Weaknesses: | Bass response is not as powerful as I would like. The speed and impact of it exists, and compliments everything involved, but there is nothing like bass that scares you, IMO. |
| Video/HT System: Integrated | |
| TV/Projector: | None |
| Processor/Receiver/Amplifiers: | Sony STR-DA4ES |
| Speakers (Center, Surrounds, Sub): | Polk Audio RTi38/CSi30/FXi30/SVS PB1-ISD |
| Sources (DVD/VCR): | Sony DVP-450 |
| Other HT Gear: | Monster Cable HTS-5100 |
| Comments on HT System: | I am very happy with my simple setup. I really enjoy movies, and the new SVS subwoofer, has shown me what I have been missing. |
| Other Interests/Hobbies/Occupation: | Sr. RF Field Technician - Sprint PCS |
