Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections): pretty much everything except rap and opera (which is classical rap)
System Goals/Comments: Easy to listen to with very good detail but can rock when it has to.
System Strengths: Good detail & articulation, good soundstaging, cohesive and involving, balanced.
System Weaknesses: Previous CD-Player, Arcam FMJ CD36 lacked a bit of high-end sparkle. The Cambridge Audio 840C corrected that. The Keilidhs are not the last word in detail.

Comments on HT System: Terrific for concert DVD's, very involving, and the system rocks. Great for movies too, the sub with 650 Class D watts is up for anything and is fast enough that it doesn't call attetion to itself with music.
Other Interests/Hobbies/Occupation: bass guitar, cycling, drums, digital home studio
