Ed, thats your Quicky in front of the fireplace.
I put the Titans back in for these speakers, maybe the Zesto phono is coming tommorow!! also the big Micro Seiki with the airbearing is going to be setup so it should be fun!

They sound like they have tremendous potential, I am using a Technics right now so it sounds pretty bad.

The source must be great in order for great sound to happen, even if the best speakers in the world are at the end of that chain.

Hopefully we will move the source up a few notches ;)
tomorrow that's when the MAGIC begins.

The Hansens have tremendous resolution, and are less forgiving of shitty gear, but feed them right and they can give big rewards, hopefully we can feed them better tomorow.

forget the speakers, this turntable is silly amazing!

Layers of delicious details airy and decay, rendered with such beauty, and tremendous fast bass, all with a cheap cartridge :duh
I love my BL 111 but this is simply in another league, perhaps it is the air bearing.

I am having one of those ecstatic audiophile moments that we cherish so much..... :drool:

That table is simply stunning to look at, sounds like it performs just a swell. Sweet.
