Class D amps are still a hurdle my mind has to get past. I'd love to hear that system sometime. 

I'm considering buying an HE-6 just for the fun of pairing it with every speaker amp I come across.

Early Class D amps were awful, they've come a long way.  But just like Class A, A/B, not all D amps sound the same.  Check out Wyred 4 Sound, Bel Canto and also the Hypex N-Core.

Some stuff I've seen on the W4S stuff is still troubling, but I know a lot of people are loving it as well as Bel Canto. I'd love to try some of it with the lack of a speaker system makes it harder. :D

Hoping that one of these local vintage Technics speaker deals come through so I'll at least have something.

How's the mINT and HE6 combo? Seems like a good idea to me though the Class D nature of the mINT would be less than ideal.

Oh god now I want to put it on little casters and roll it around my apartment. Win.

Why brick on top every component that you have? 

My guess is to avoid dust.

I work on vibrations. Below each device, there's a combination of several vibration-control devices plus weight on the top of each component (with a thin felt layer below each slab to cancel resonances).

Hmm, he also did similar thing on components bottom. Maybe vibration, EMI?

EDIT: Nevermind, haven't seen your post page back.

I used to have a house brick on top of my cd player to stop any vibrations effecting the laser. Does is it actually make any difference with other components?

Only, I thought it was the best then, even though I really DON'T think it would be best for me now. Oh well, suppose it's all in the past now.. Onwards and upwards, as they say!.

Trains are my chosen transport these days... much safer.
