It's from a German company and it's called EMPIRE Precision MC-Series.
I have it since a couple of years and happy with it's quality and look.

Thanks. It's a nice looking stand.

Cleared the desk for the new gear to come in. Ordered some Mogami RCA interconnects to connect the Hugo 2 to the amp. Consider this the before picture.

Whose rack?

Actually this is just a regular rack, not some 'Fancy Expensive Hi-END rack.' I bought it on Taobao (which is essentially the Chinese version of Alibaba)

No subwoofer?

If it's there, it would be somewhere under the table, right?

Cheers!

My latest iteration., Some solid state, tube, and electrostat in a relatively smaller footprint.

Yes, but I didn't see one listed on his gear, thus why I asked.

Haha I got it in 2011 for $100. Used WinDAS for dynamic convergence adjustments. It weighs nearly 100lbs and I don't really trust shipping it. Finding someone local to repair is the problem. And though its rare, my investment is small and I don't know how much money I'd be comfortable throwing at it knowing that it could/will fail [again] at any moment. The anxiety of maintaining and using it sometimes felt like too much lol - using the little monitor and TV on my desk has been a revelation in relaxation since there's not much for me to tweak/repair/lose. The Hyundai V560 is 1024x768 and I love playing PC games on it. The TV is RF only, so I don't have a plethora of component and SCART cables and adapters to deal with. It's all just much more simple.

At least that's what I try to remain convinced of ^^^ because I'd surely still be using the FW900 if I could :/

Oh man. This thread is making me jealous. I used to have the Silicon Graphics (SGI) version of the FW900 and sold it before I moved 20 years ago and replaced it with a crappy LCD. I wish I had that thing back - It was just so beautiful.

Alibaba is Chinese.

He meant that Taobao is a China facing ("for Chinese people") version of Alibaba.
