Congrats! Beautiful system! Went to SF official site. Looks like SF has even put out a revised "The Sonus Faber": The Sonus Faber SE17. I hope that you will find the time to tell us how the new Olympia III sounds.

Dynophile, you have a near perfect system, nothing needs to be added, nothing needs to be taken away. Very well done.

Decided to put a second system together in the bedroom after neck surgery kept me on my back for a couple of months. Mostly driven by nostalgia I started with a pair of JBL L100 Classic, MA252, and MT5 w/ Ortofon Cadenza Blue. The JBLs really surprised me. Remarkable detail, clarity, depth of soundstage, but a little thin in bass. Much more audiophile level of performance than expected. The MA252 was very good but I thought it strained when pushed (not really unexpected) and in the best (worst?) audiophile tradition I naturally traded it for a C70 and MC462. I am truly smitten with the C70. Great MC section built in, very smooth even out of the box. The JBLs sound even better, but I may acquire a pair of Sabrina down the road. The MT5/C70/MC462 is a really impressive set up from McIntosh. By the way speaking of nostalgia, my CD player is a Nakamichi OMS 7II from the mid ‘80s.
