thank you all so much for the hearty welcome...
I have 2 current systems (work and home) and both are a culmination of numerous years and a countless amount of British pounds, Swiss Francs and now US dollars invested/spent/mispent.
Home is total Nagra with Stenheim speakers and Nordost Odin and Valhalla cables. It is a testament to Switzerland, a country I love and lived in for 20 years. A testament to precision, to an analogue tradition and heritage. Ultimately a nostalgic nod to times past and to a fastidious and unbelievable level of detail and workmanship. It is my vintage porsche audio, my patek philippe audio..
So to be precise: Nagra CDP, Nagra HD DAC, Nagra Jazz, Nagra VPS, Nagra MPS and (for the time being) a stereo Nagra Classic Amp. (I have a Nagra 300P for sale in the marketplace here too). Speakers are Stenheim Alumine 3s with matching Base Modules. They are a bespoke in full anodised silver aluminium.
Analogue source is my Simon Yorke S10 with 7.1 arm. I have 2 wands and change between a Koetsu Onyx and a Jan Allaerts. I also own a Brinkmann LaGrange which I have decided to sell as I have not much use for 2 tables.
I have yet to decide on a media server as I would like to burn my cd's and blurays to a device of some sort.
Work: 2 Devialet D-Premieres (which I might or might not upgrade) a wonderful Weiss MAN 301 server and 8 KEF in wall speakers. Here I use Audioquest cable in the walls and between the components
I also need to set up my British vintage components, 80's and 90's Quad and Meridian and will do so once I source a nice pair of speakers, thinking early electrostats or spendors. Oh plus I need the holiday/weekend place for this too...
