Lovely, lovely stuff @Oregonian!
Garage/home gym system...............Pioneer SA-8800 fed by iPad and/or vintage Yamaha CD player into both Cerwin Vega DX-3's and JBL 4311B and a Velodyne 15" sub - what I call true surround sound with a bottom end to die for..................
And the flagship of the house...............Pioneer Spec 1 preamp/Spec 2 amp/TX-9500II tuner/SA-9800 EQ/PDR-609 CD player/recorder/PL-S50 turntable feeding Klipsch 3.2's.
Last but not least.............a spare Spec 1 preamp and SA-9900 amp waiting on a location to hook them up. By the way, those Klipsch HP-3 headphones are incredible - like my Pioneer SE Master 1's, they are not talked about much but both are top of the line from my view.
@petemac110 or anyone who has one.
What are your thoughts on the Sansui Eight Deluxe? It gets rave reports just about everywhere I look. Prices have skyrocketed for them specifically in the few years Ive been into vintage gear. Soon it will be outta reach for me price wise.
Ive been lusting for a Mac 4100 for a very long time,and wont be able to buy both any time soon. so I need to decide,for now,which one will be my next receiver.
How's Sansui AU-7700 or Marantz 2215B for HD800 and LCD-2? No experience on vintage amps.
I had these 'vintage' Axis speakers since 1998. Vintage enough because they were from the late 80s era. Bought new and it has not left home since. Kept safe from little fingers, they are still as new as day 1. Recently John Reilly the speaker designer came to my place and he was amazed that I still had pairs of LS88 and LS28 in pristine condition.
