Di naman my sources came from elsewhere.  Ferdie supplied most of the rest.  What can I say, Ferdie is the man if you are serious about getting the sound right or tailored to your taste. And of course brother Sonny built the beautiful rack.

Updated system


Aside from tweaks here and there, I'll just be collecting LP's, CD's, and AIFF files from here-on.  Sonny, that plexiglass thing under the Artemis is looking a little out of place ;).

It was one of the simpliest and very neat audio set-up i've seen so far.  :) :)
Clarity, detail, accuracy, and realism are unmatched....

john i could only shake my head a drool over this set up, the ways things were laid out and chosen reflects how meticulous and serious you are with the hobby, sure look forward to hearing that soon

congrats on the additions, that artemis surely is wanting a new wooden plint to compliment the rest of the wooden beauties

That gave me a little dilemma actually.  Had to choose which component faced front - the Shunyata Hydra or the Artemis.  Can't be both due to cable length.  In the end it had to be the Shunyata that gives way because with 5 thick power cords angled at 90 degrees imparting a lateral force, the rollerblocks beneath won't "float" the Shunyata freely, negating the decoupling effect. I even put more weight on top of the Hydra and the Artemis, mass loading them so to speak, to reduce the influence of the "bent" power and interconnect cables on them, thus enabling the rollerblocks to function as intended. Mind you, these Symposium Rollerblocks, especially the Series 2 beneath the Artemis really work. Their effect is immediately noticeable.   :).

Nonsense.  Bring a designated driver and lets drink cold beer while listening  8).  I am not as creative as you hence I buy rather than build.  Brother, you build things with your hands - that's even more rewarding once you get it right.
Thanks John, very kind words... too bad I can't make electronics  ;D ;D ;D sige, will keep in touch through text. Thanks again

Aside from tweaks here and there, I'll just be collecting LP's, CD's, and AIFF files from here-on.  Sonny, that plexiglass thing under the Artemis is looking a little out of place ;).

Kainggit yung setup, especially after Ferds quoted me the price of the Accuphase line. . . hanap na lang kaya ako ng vintage na accuphase? Or luxman?  Nice Bel Canto Dac.  Waiting for the Rega DAC myself to complete my digital front end.  Saka na muna yung analog. Cheap P-mount Technics (pero naka Grado Green) muna until I get a proper music room for myself. . .

Nice setup!

May project proposal na lang ako kay Master JojoD, since nasa DIY heaven na siya ngayon.  Baka makapagawa ako ng Pass or Krell clone kung makasingit ako sa very hectic sked niya. . . ;D
