Info

Video blog chronicling the activity of an OCD Audiophile who has made the journey to the other side. Now I curate audio systems for others. Im generally skeptical, and Ive decided to educate the end user and in many ways, oppose the audio establishment. Keep in mind I am used to the top level of Boutique, 2 channel Audio. My system cost is $250K for reference. 

Source: Playback Designs MPS-X 
DAC: Playback Designs MPD-8 A.I. 
Amplifiers: 
Highs= NAT Audio Magma New monos                  Lows= Grandinote Demone monos 
Loudspeakers: Fischer&Fischer SN1000.1
