WOW 

 

[bbophead]

Sure could use a run down/update on SO's system.  Looks great, whatever it is.

I'm just a little concerned where his magnificent Sansui receiver is..

WOW thats an incredible spread.
 
Curious, why all the vibration isolation under the solid state components and not the turntable or tubes?

cool stuff! How do you like your TT?

Thanks. I like my TT - Music Hall MMF-7.1
I'll be needing to upgrade the cart late spring.
 
 

  What's that rackmount studio piece? Dac?

Not a DAC but the Apogee Big Ben Master Clock. A digital Swiss knife, if you would.

Only the Master Clock is solid state... but it's a clock. The preamp middle left is a tube preamp. My Mapleshade Iso tweaks are leftover from a previous system - all of those components are not on display in the above pix which include 6 pound brass footers. 
 
Shindo Laboratory voiced their gears to be placed directly onto shelves with no iso tweaks. The current shelf is interim only until I can afford a tuned Box Furniture rack. I just moved and experimenting with the new environment - the new room has a different vibe, so trust and verify I say! Lastly, the current rack lacks vertical height clearance in the middle shelf needed for the proper tweaks.
 

 
 
On the TT, if you look at it more closely in the pix below, you'll notice the TT is isolated by design - a base sandwich with sorbothane filling the middle:
 

 
 

 I hope the listing of gears, illustrations and brief explanations helps!

Thanks for the explanations but all they did was help me drool summores.

Git you a nice thick healthy slice of Pecan pie and an ice cold glass of milk...and you'll be set. For a few minutes anyways.

More of a mincemeat kind of pie guy but that do sound good.  Nope, homemade pineapple upside down cake out of Cook's Illustrated, thank you very much.

That is just flat out breath taking.....WOW + 10

Testing out an Inter-M speaker amp, but I usually have the Quad monoblocks down there instead.
