Neat. Which amplifier is that?
It looks like it's still the PrimaLuna Prologue Five he mentioned a few posts ago.

@buckstir How are the 1290s holding up with that amp? I'm still keeping my eyes open on the classifieds for something with more SS power than my Rega Mira or NAD 7140 have on tap.
 
PrimaLuna Prologue Five has remained stellar.
1290's are now in second system. Either them or DCM TF600's will hit the market.
Running 1975 Klipsch Heresys with sub for now.
The upper end clarity ... along with the vocals and drums front and center ... are very appealing with the vintage Heresys.
Need to rotate the 1290's in with the new preamp before deciding on the starting lineup.
I have ss separates with 100 wpc and 175 wpc sitting idle right now.
The gain on the Quicksilver coupled with the efficiency of the Heresys will get your attention fast in the listening chair.
First ever subwoofer .... a skeptic no longer.
