I joined this forum a while ago and never noticed this segment of the party.

I live near a few of these guys: PunkerX, Jeff Mathers, DonC, OlsonJr and probably a few more.

I have two systems, one is the "Breezeway" system that doesn't change much.
Speakers: Salk HT-2TLs

The Dungeon system is in the basement and is always in "flux". No, not the soldering kind!

Crossovers are DIY outboard clones of the Altec N800-F built in bamboo boxes from BB&B
Speaker Cables: Transparent Audio somethings
Interconnects: DIY shielded twisted pair and VH Audio fine silver helical designs as well as his V-Twist from pre-amp to amp. Cartridge wired with one run from clips to RCAs

It's hard to beat the HypnoToad AD797 board for high-quality MC playback at the price. Nice systems!

The Dungeon where endless experiments occur. Some good, some-not-so-much.
