........I've gotta quit hanging around with you guys............

What a danged minute, NO Mach 1's listed ? Too ashamed to mention them ? You and your dam cyber-fleas !!!!!!!!! Can't get rid of the dam things ... Blame HarryO ........... he's a bad influence .............. EH !!!!!!!!! ....................

I have been content with my system for over a year or 2 now - and I am still here.

No need to leave just cos you got it right.

Now I only replace things that break.

Me too for the most part. I'd like to replace  my Bryston B60 integrated being used as an amplifier with a Bryston 2B-LP pro that has level controls (it would be sonically equivalent).  When I find one at the right price i"ll buy it.  The AES-3 preamp I use has a lot of gain and I would like to be able to attenuate that a bit.  This combination with Fortes with Munson crossovers and BEC titanium diaphragms sound wonderful IMHO.  I never thought a Klipsch speaker would become one of my favorites. 

Sounds like it, this morning I just bought a pair of RB51's to go with my RF-52's and RC-52, I won't go into power or how I'm driving my receiver (spdif from computer).  This Klipsch thing is like chasing the dragon, you never catch it, but you come close.

My system is in a 12x8x10 room, my computer/tv room, I still have my old Heresy II's, just hanging around (22 years old), but I swore that after the RF-52's that was it, then came the RC-52 and that was it, now the RB-51's and that better be it.  I drive the whole thing through my computer, so I have close to 2TB of storage for digital media.  I use a Dell Dimension E-521 with an AMD 4800+ X2 processor, 3 GB or RAM and 750 MB of storage (it's BIOS limit).  This machine Has a Soundblaster X-Fi Audio Extreme card, to which a digital IO module is connected, which in turn connects to my Yamaha RX-V661, through a spdif cable.  I have a Linux server I built, running Samba which is where I store most of my media, it has 1.2TB of storage, both are hardwired into a 1GB hub.  I am seriously contemplating a 1080p tv.  My Doc says I'm fine, but I must need a brain checkup.

This Klipsh culture, which of course is motivated by truly superior sound and spatial orientation can be as addictive as gambling.  Crazy thing is; The more you put in, the more you get out.  Personally I love the Reference series stuff for my little sound room, way more than my Heresy II's (saying that will get me kicked off this forum (Heresy to the Heresy)).  Never in my life did I think that I would have a 5 speaker sound system...now about that subwoofer.... :)

If I were married I'd have been killed by now..  My GF is from Indiana, but somehow that just doesn't do it for her.

Good luck...it's always something... 

Enjoy! System contentment. what a concept! 

Yeah, I'm content with my set-up, and HAPPY, too ........................... Wonder how Cornwalls would sound ????? ...oops..

lol, that's quite the long list you've got there

I'm gonna bet that it'll be about a year when you get that upgrade bug again  

ARF,

When you gonna list the tube stuff?

Content? Naw, don't think so!

Harry

I don't see any reason you should not be content with that set.I've been content for some time now,it did take a while and some work.If you listen to your set and love it,what's not to be content with?

Congrats on the nice setup.

I am also content, and it is a very nice place to be.

Carl.

Carl I,m not content with your contentment...Dogs are content,,Cows are content. The itch will come back i guarantee it.

OB, The Mach 1's are owned by a friend. He didn't want to spend the extra coin to have Heresy II's, therefore the Mighty Mach purchase.

I tell him they sound just like HII's and he's happy. They do, after all, don't they? (insert wink)

It's good that you and I are getting along. I have an infestation of cyber-tapeworms for the next person that bunches my panties.(wink again)

HarryO is the Baskin Robbins shoppe of stereo equipment for me. Over the past four years I have purchased 8 pair of speakers, 4 amps, 3 CD players and at least 2 receivers from him. That's off the top of my head.... I'm sure I've missed a few items.

A bad influence?   If I had a wife I'd say definately!  Such is not the case, however. And I do enjoy having all the differant "flavors" of sound I have received from him.

Harry

There's that Baskin Robbins guy again.....

Something about a Knight integrated being the flavor of the week.

Darn this addiction!

Content for what????? Two, three days maybe?

ARF,

I also keep thinking i am content................then those pesky thoughts creep in "What if I............".

I am content...........Famous last words...............Nice System(s) you have.
