Re: Hello from Melbourne, Australia!
Thank you Joe and Chris.
Geez, so many familiar faces!
Shane, haven't I met you before? I was looking at your equipment list and wondering what happened to your Sonus Fabers. Unless it's a different Shane! I'm pretty sure that there are only so many Shanes who have a TW-Akustik Raven and CJ amps! And ... DEQX HDP-4!! Digital!!!
And hello David, nice to see you here
I thought you had Boulders, what's with the Vitus?

Re: Hello from Melbourne, Australia!
No Keith, same Shane. Sonus faber's went about 5 years ago.
thankfully I have moved rooms from where you heard my pea soup all those years ago. Deqx was the only thing that made the room listenable in the end by taming the bass nodes. The new room was my wife's TV room. The room did more positives to the sound than any equipment I have ever bought!!
Can't believe you are still tinkering with your speakers - keep you busy I am sure.

. I sold my Boulder amps after hearing a pair of Magico Q1's being driven by a Vitus SIA-025 & SCD-010. With Siltech Royal Sig series cables, that setup was so tube-like and musical I was amazed! That audition directly led me to sell off my old system.

Hello Steve! More like chief loser!
My system is very close to being "finished". Only a couple more purchases and I think I will be done. It has come a loooong way compared to when I bought them, and they sound incredible now.
