just simplified rig -- got rid of a lot of boxes -- and very pleased with the results. just have to love senn hd600s -- they're fabulous.

Nice rig. That Parasound is beastly. How do you like it? I’ve got the 2125v2 Parasound amp, but I’m totally tempted by the new A21+. Such is life...

What you gonna do after you settled on your cables?

C-side, cable risers, crystals?

sure, there are plenty of tweaks out there! I am actually looking into some of them, luckily this stuff usually comes with a 30day return policy so you can check whether they work in your system and for your ears or not.

At the moment I am enjoying a temporary peace of mind, in one of my "just sit back and enjoy the music" phases, but I am sure the audiophile nervosa will get me sooner than later again.

I am a big fan of parasound. What is your impressions on the 2125v2? is it warm and detail? Enough power?

My survival system away from my beloved main gear. Enough for surviving a week or so.
A 20Ω resistor really turns the ER3XR into an ER4XR.

Glad I checked out that album shown there, from a fellow kiwi no less Instantly love any spacey music. ISON, Interstellar soundtrack, Mesarthim, Neurotech etc etc

I do like it. It's been 100% rock solid. I don't know if I'd say it's warm. But it's not cold either. It's transparent, which is good. I'm driving some big, efficient, Cerwin Vega speakers and it does great. But there's always the "what if" factor when looking at new gear; "what if I had the new amp with 400 watts, etc, etc)". It's the GAS syndrome (gear acquisition syndrome).

I could probably live with my 2125 for the rest of my life and never "need" another amp. But the A21+ sure is pretty. And it has 400 watts. Silly, I know.

Anyway, Parasound gear has always treated me right.

it's a very nice amp and certainly overkill for my current set-up. i would describe the sound as neutral to slightly warm -- it's definitely not a brutally analytic amp. i got it because i figured it would have plenty of power for now and well as any situation in the future (hopefully with some larger speakers).

Yes sir!

With the Golden Ears it all sounds amazing.
The golden ears are my end game speakers. They synergize so well with the bryston and benchmark.

Currently don't have a desktop DAC, so I'm using my iFi Micro iDSD BL. Kinki Studio EX-M1 is the amp.

Schiit's Vali coasters give Cairn Brewing's Brown a blacker background and smoother delivery!

Though admittedly blurred out in the foreground, the Shanling M5s mated with the Meze 99 Classics.

My tablets the Huawei M5 and Ipad Mini 4 (used to preview songs on Youtube first) underneath.

I love the Classics so much, I recently ordered the Noirs on Drop as well. It's just that much sexier. I'll be sure to photograph the Meze Noirs once i get them in my hands (God willing, on Wednesday), but the package sure is taking its time.
