Hello everybody,
My installation in Ardèche, French department.
I am between Lyon and Valence.

My installation is as follows:

PS-1250 PS accuphase power supply
McIntosh C22 MK5 preamplifier
McIntosh MC1502 amplifier
Holbo MK2 Turntable
HIFIROSE RS130 transport
DAC McIntosh D150
Franco Serblin Accordo Essence speakers

All of the cables are of the Eterna Model Esprit brand.
I'm going to look for a men220, Romperfect, this Thursday in Italy.
I plan to replace my speakers with JBL S3900 or S4367.

Below is my YouTube page and some photos.

Good day,

Very nice rig indeed! I confess that I’m unfamiliar with some of those brands, but it all appears to be of high quality. I’d like to hear it.
 
thank you for your welcome.


The sound is very clear, transparent.
"Franco Serblin" is of course the founder of Sonus Faber.
Sonus Faber was sold for years ago and now belongs, if I am not mistaken, to the same group as McIntosh.
Franco Serblin remained independent.
The sound speakers in real solid wood of walnut.

At the top right, transport is an Hifirose RS130, it has no integrated DAC. I do not know if this product has already been talked about on your continent, here in Europe it is the object to have at the moment.
He has his own software but I prefer to use Roon.
The Core Roon is installed on one of my NAS.

The turntable is a Serbian brand, very few people know this brand. It is a very simple and high quality product, it competes with turntable with teugntial arms more than tens of thousand euros.

The cables I use, from the esprit brand represents around 12% of the total cost of the HIFI. I do not know if at home it is like with us, but here it is a bit of war between people who say that simple cable at 1 euros are so good cables to several thousand euros. You now know in which camp I am :)

Do not hesitate to ask me questions, it will make me pleasant to answer them.

Good day,

Rémi

I didn't tell you about the reading head.
I had an Dynavector MC Hight 10 x 5, I broke it by cleaning it.
So I bought and received today a Technica OC9XSL audio.
Installed with ease, it is part for a minimim of 50 hours of running.

 
Well!
Very nice gear. If you were closer. I'd ask for a demo.
So do you have Mac dealers there?
 
thank you for your welcome.
