Post by: GT Audio Works on August 07, 2015, 10:54:59 AM: I will have my CD player which is an older JVC unit heavily modded by Paradox.
I will also have a VPI Prime turntable , courtesy of VPI.
Step up transformers courtesy of Dave Slagel
A Paradox Pulse R Ruby cantilever cartridge and a Paradox Pulse
phono stage.
Please do bring plenty of music, I hear some great tracks brought in by show goers.

Post by: GT Audio Works on August 07, 2015, 11:25:43 PM: Thanks to Rich Hollis of Hollis Audio Labs.
I will have digital files covered, as well as the ability to play flash drives from show goers.
He is supplying his HAL MS-3 Music Server's and dspMusik DAC for CAF.
I think we have the sources covered...unless someone comes in with an 8 track !!

Post by: KLH007 on August 08, 2015, 10:33:19 AM: You now have all the bases covered, I might even bring some vinyl to spin on your VPI TT setup, I want to hear the modded Denon 103.

Post by: HAL on August 09, 2015, 02:35:40 PM: Have two MS-3 Music Servers running Windows 10 OS to bring to Greg's room at CAF. Always good to have a spare.

The dspMusik's are ready as well.

Hope to see folks there!

The GT Audio Works room is in the mix.

At 5:46 and 7:25 into the video
Peter Brunninger Quote " The best under $10k speakers I have heard at a show all year"
"May be the best under $25k system I have ever heard"

Hey Scotty,

Motor mouth !! :rofl:

You mean you haven't modded your laptop speakers ??
Im kinda disappointed in you Rich, thought you were a hardcore speaker guy ! :lol:

Post by: _Scotty_ on September 30, 2015, 11:33:05 AM: Mea culpa, I was unaware that the person with the SLR was rolling video and that my dulcet tones would be captured to live forever in infamy on the world wide web.
Personally I think the set should have been cleared of undesirables before shooting was commenced.

Post by: topround on September 30, 2015, 11:38:23 AM: have to agree my computer speakers never sounded so good!

Congrats on a great product! After hearing a Bach Cantata on your speakers I was floored. The scale and separation and tone was breathtaking! I was immersed in music.
Saving my money for a pair.

No biggie Scotty, he caught me by surprise too.
Glad to see you made the trip up, and visited my room throughout the weekend.

I do love speakers, but I gotta draw the line somewhere! :D

I hope to hear your speakers again (in person) before I buy new speakers next year.

EDIT: Just learned over on AC that this system also used HAL music server and DAC. Was it the dspMusick DAC?

I believe it was, ask Rich to be sure.
I can tell you it sounded awesome especially the high rez stuff.

Post by: HAL on September 30, 2015, 06:22:27 PM: Yes, it was the HAL MS-3 running Windows 10 and the dspMusik as a DAC at the show for digital replay. :)

The video was the moded JVC CD player that Greg brought, since that was used for the demo CD's brought by the reviewer.
