Hello from San Francisco
Greetings,
I've been out of the hobby for several years after settling on my current system which consists of JA Michell Gyrodec, Weiss DAC 202 (connected to a MacBook), VAC Sigma 160SE and Nola Metro Grand Reference speakers. Well the bug bit me again and I just ordered my dream system (i.e., MBL). I'm anxiously awaiting delivery and stumbled upon this site looking for MBL forums.
I look forward to conversations (MBL and otherwise)!
Regards,
Patrick

Thanks everyone. Right now Trouble's little sister Charlie is rather upset. Day two of Trouble not being here and she knows it. She is depressed for sure. We pet her and try to comfort her, but...
