RE: favorite audio equipment

Posted by SalD on March 12, 2008 at 11:36:21:
Favorite piece is my Audio Physic Virgos, the first model. I am spending more and more time with the incredible new Harbeth 7ES-3s, but I will never part with the Virgos. No speaker I've ever heard images or throws a soundstage like they do. Brilliant.

My first system of separates was in 1970: JBL Century 100s (in dark brown), a Dual 1229 table with Shure M95E cartridge and a Pioneer SX-737 receiver, which, I believe, was 35 watts/ch. Zip cord, of course. It probably wouldn't sound too good today, but people used to drop in all the time to listen to new sounds. They don't anymore.
