Great looking system Blatrie. Congratulations on the addition of the MT5. I like the sound of the OEM cartridge a lot...the Sumiko Blue point..can't go wrong!

Fully agree! I envision in my wildest dreams having a system, splitting the mids
and highs with tube monoblocks and solid state monoblocks for the bass.
And the symmetry of the system is also perfect! Congrats.

Here's my Mac system with the new 800 D3s and the new Gotham subs. Sorry if the pics are a little small, I haven't quite got the picture thing figured out yet.
