Default Project Completed. They Arrived!!!

Hey all,

I finally have everything delivered and connected. The 601's arrived earlier today and are now part of my new setup. The Oppo 205 joined yesterday as well; My back is broken...
Still working on the position of each component in the rack but I am pretty happy!
Can I finally join the 601 club? ;-)

Thank you all for the amazing feedback and advice you have given me so far. I am sure this is just the beginning for me! (when I grow up I want to be Ivan).

Cheers,
Roy.

Terrific looking, and I bet sounding, system. One piece of advise, upgrade your amp stands. I had the ones you show in the picture. I heard a world of difference when I used an isolation stand for my integrated amp. It will help pull every ounce of beauty out of those monster 601 amps!
