Hand finished birch plywood base with a lead-filled birch platter. Battery driven. A beauty! My phono stage is a Holfi Battriaa Signature Edition ($1800.)
A dual-pivot tone arm with great grace! I use it with a 12
A moving coil cartridge that sings with my Teres! See this article for a description and picture: http://www.positive-feedback.com/Issue15/zyx.htm
This is my phono amp; it is a solid state amp and I am pleased with it, though at some point hope to replace it with a tube phono amp. Holfi is a Danish company; here is a link to some info about the Battriaa S.E.

This is my record cleaning machine (RCM.) I made it using a kitchen stand on wheels from Target, a wet-dry vacuum, a turntable platter (TT purchased on Ebay)and a VIP RCM upgrade kit. I thank those on the Internet whose ideas I borrowed to make this. :-D
Very, very musical - a big step up from my previous Rotel RCD-1072.
- Art Audio Carissa Signature 845
Wow! Beautiful to look at and even more beuatiful in sound. A new aquisition, not yet burned in, but I am loving the sound this amp produces. I replaced my Sophia EL34 tube amp with this one and don't regret the change.
- Audio aero Prima D/A Converter 24/192
Finally added a DAC to my set up. I am very pleased with the result.
Voight pipe speakers hand made in Walla Walla Washington by Terry Cain. Beautiful solid alder wood, wonderful sound.
I am using these cables for my 2-channel system, interconnects between my phono stage and Sophia amp and my CD-player and Sophia amp. Excellent!
I use these wires for my Abbey speakers. Very inexpensive, but a good match with the Abbeys.
A digital cable to connect my CD player to the DAC. Guess I'm now part of Team Cardas!
I use these "after-market" power cords for my main 2-channel system - for the Audio aero Prima CDP and my ART audio Carissa integrated tube amp.
This is actually my DVD, SACD. DVD-A player. It has great PQ and is very musical.
This is a solid state receiver with great looks and lots of options. Mid fi, I suppose, but I like it! I use it with my HT system, not my 2-channel system.
Just got these speakers, a little known German brand that sounds full and wonderful. I use these speakers with my HT system. My front 3 speakers (left, right, center) have the maple finish, while my two rear speakers have the cherry finish. They sound very good for music and movies.
A very mucical sub with a beautiful curly-maple finish
A beautiful custom made stand of hard maple, bubinga and Emerald Pearl granite. Mike of HHG Stands is a member of Audigon. My actual stand is pictured on his website, 3rd one down on this page: http://www.hhgstands.com/page6.html
10' speaker wires that I am using for my front FJ Zwerg HT speakers.
A power filter I just obtained for my audio and HT system.
I had to have a run of 45 ft. each for these cables so went for cheap and cheerful but decent Blue Jean cables. They work just fine for the rear speakers for my HT system.
