Ever Evolving 2 Channel System

Hello there! this is current state of my 2 channel system. Musical, dynamic impact, tonal accuracy was main theme and the evolution of this system.

Recently I replaced Martin Logan EM-ESL with Ascend Acoustic Sierra NrT towers and upgraded to AudioQuest Gibraltar 72DBS from Type-4 Speaker cables, with those changes and component sources and cabling are true signature of my current sonic preferences.

Room size is 12x24x8 hardwood floor with 8x10 area rug.

2 Channel for music, 2.1 for movies with Martin Logan Abyss subwoofer. I'm not using turntable at this moment.

This set up is done for now other than minor tweaks until I'm more serious about audiophile than music listening.

Feel free to share your thoughts and comments or even advices are always welcome! But please do not drag me into cable debate.



Marantz UD7007.



Parasound Halo P5 & A-21.



Ascend Sierra Satin Espresso NrT Towers.



AudioQuest Gibraltar 72 DBS.



Interconnects: Audioquest Diamondbacks XLR.



Power Supply: PS Audio Perfectwave AC-12, AC-5, xStream Plus power cables with PS Audio Detect Power Center.



20 Amp Dedicated AC line with Take Five Audio Cryo Treated Hubbell 5362W Outlets.

Nice gear indeed.
Not a believer in wires though... because I've been 'at this' for 40 years.
But those are Blingy at least :-)

It's refreshing to see a non-vintage system. What is the amp on player on the right side of your rack, and are they in use?
Click to expand...

On the right side of the rack is Denon PMA2000IV-R at bottom, Marantz CD5001 on top. My 14 years old gear, I do not use them much but I love to listen to them sometimes with bookshelf speakers.
 
I like the strategically-placed cars... to minimize vibration, I assume.

:D

Nice system. Seems very well-balanced. :thmbsp:
 
I have a dead Denon DP47F TT and 200+ Japanese press LPs in the storage room. I might be looking for new TT soon but at this moment I'm ok with CDs and streaming.
