My New Stereo. Hurray for me. After having a Marantz CD player / Rotel Amp / Mission bookshelf speakers since 1989 I thought it was about time to treat myself to a new system.
So now, my setup is: Mac Mini running iTunes (I'm currently ripping all my music as lossless ALAC) | v USB out into Bel Canto S300iu integrated amp with USB DAC | v Focal 806v standmount speakers Sorry if that means nothing to 99% of you but I'm tripping on it! "Sheeeeeeeeit" | |

Thanks. The Focal's are pretty much kid proof which was my main worry going for bookshelf's. My 2 year old would love to punch a tweeter through so those grilles are very handy, plus the speakers also bolt to their stands! Good luck choosing in 3yrs! "Sheeeeeeeeit" | |

I've always wanted either Carver or McIntosh components....Polk or Klipsch Pro series speakers....and now that I'm a little older and have a little bit more "fluid" capital, when the kids come home for a visit from their respective colleges, they're gonna be all ... ....but then they gotta go!! I can only imagine how your system sounds, but based on the pix I'm imagining some of my fave sounds.... He was like a cock who thought the sun had risen to hear him crow.
