The rack is the Harmonic Resolution System SXR, the bases are the MX3R. They normally don't keep stock of the Silver bases hence the waiting times. Worth it though I think, Silver looks more "tech" than the Black.
 
Photos showing the internal construction, the feet of the bases have their own suspension system built into them, they can be changed in the future to suit the component weight going on them. Its a one off investment that will last forever and provides plenty of flexibility.

Awesome design and engineering!

  Received the stand this week. The HRS stand turned up all 230KG of it. It was an easy build and even I could follow the well laid out instructions. It is missing the 2 bases for the middle, they arrive next week. The music server and its power supply will fit on those.
 
The sonic effect is a lowered noise floor and greater detail retrieval. The tonality seems to have become richer and the whole sound is more cohesive. Can't pretend it s value upgrade but at least its a one off. The bases are matched to the weight of the equipment going on them. The stand has been designed so you easily add or subtract levels, even go side ways.

amazing
 
looks like those are shunyata power cable.  sigma series?  which one are you using?  digital or hc?  i'm thinking getting one for the wa5.  probably a alpha.  would a digital be enough?  or hc, more power/high current the better?

Did you hear it in a wa6?

That Woo.
Oooo la la.

I will be selling a pair that I bought from a dealer in Wisconsin 3 or 4 months ago pretty soon.... look out for them in the for sale forum tonight....

Yeah that's what I've got it in.

Certainly fantastic and well built!

Using Shunyata Sigma's (digital and HC's), was using the Alpha series in the HC variant. Experimented with a Sigma Digital on the DAC, I had heard a lot of differing reports, it seems that on some DAC's it works well, not so well own others. On both of my DAC's it made a big difference, the bass became more tuneful, much better layering and detail. The texture throughout the audible range improved substantially over an Alpha HC. So have 2 x Sigma Digital's for the Music Server and the DAC and Sigma HC's for the amps. To be honest the most important place to use a Sigma is from the wall outlet to the Triton, for the $ there is no way I could recommend the expense over the Alpha except for the DAC. That made such difference it was akin to a component upgrade. If you use a digital series cable on an analog source it does some very strange things to the sound and is not recommended. Shunyata recommended the normal Sigma analog for the amps but I have a couple of large mono block amps coming for my 2 channel system so knew I would be using them there.
 
Couldn't recommend any Sigma cable for the WA5 as it costs more than the amp. The Alpha analog would be fine, you wouldn't need to go to a HC, you're in Hong Kong see if the dealer will lend some to try out 1st. . Plus to get the best out of the Shunyata cables they need to be used in a Shunyata system with a Triton etc. Better off spending that on Tubes.

Wow... yet, again, your system keeps us all crying with jealousy

Thanks Pal but not for long

 its all about to get pulled apart and most of it moved over to the 2 channel system. I am thinking of using a semi portable rig for Head-Fi duties as the 234's will be going. Although I have the horrible feeling that I will find that I am more into Head-fi, its been an incredible journey its stunning how fast and how good the Head-Fi scene is and has moved forwards. The next few years are going to be very interesting.

I wonder how well the WA234 will hold value for you?  I hope you don't lose too much.  Good luck...

Guys,
I just listed in the for sale (amplifiers) forum 2 pairs of 300B tubes and I will list a pair of WE422a later tonight.
