Yeah, I am very content as well, but I feel I have the best of all worlds, although I just had my SME rewired by Alfred Kayser and also original sme adapter plate. I almost sold my VRD's for a MC 275, but I am glad I did not do it. I have a RF 83 setup for HT and then my Vert. Decorator cornwalls in my garage. If I were to do anything else, I would get rid of my NAD in the garage and put something a little nicer in there, but I do not fee the urge to do so. I think I will enjoy my current setup for quite some time. Thank goodness I don't have a room big enough for Jubes!!!!!

I'm content with my current setup for the moment...I can't afford anymore upgrades since I bought Ben Clarke's (formerly Mark Deneen's) cherry RB-75s!

Good to hear that you are still enjoying the Optonica tuner. The matching amp is powering my garage system. I bought the pair of them on June 29, 1980 - still have the receipt.
Glad it went to a good home.
James

My son keeps trying to remove the Optonica and use it in his system.

No deal. I have a Sansui TU-7900 and a Kenwood KT-7500 idling away upstairs he can use. Not to mention the H/K 930 he's using currently.

Why does he want the Optonica???? Because I'm using it.

Why am I using it??? Because it outperforms the above mentioned units, in my opinion.

You did me right, James. I thank you!

Contentment is the first sign of old age.......your mind says you are, but you are in denial

Just ask Colterphoto............too much is never enough!

Not only am I content, I am delighted! After many years of gathering up all the 'stuff' that makes up my system, this past year I finished my extensive mods to my Klipschorns and did a lot of 'room treatments.' The results are more than good... to my tired old ears, the results are great.

Last Friday. the UPS guy showed up with the latest 2-LP album from Diana Krall (her "best of" record). Although I have most of these tunes on CD, the LP delivered a reality that I simply could not believe. Having Diana "lick my ears" over and over for the past few days through this - my "completed" - system, made me realize (maybe for the first time) that I am, indeed content!

Now, here's hoping nothing breaks!

Rob

PS: I find that I'm listening more, too... maybe it's just that the toobz make the room nice and toasty!

I'm content until the voices start ......(Cornwalls, no tube CD player, no Heresy II's to finish off Home theatre, ..... no wait, a cambrige Audio CD player, *** voices, no buy those Forte II's .... new DVD's, no new CD's) ...... See what I mean ..... EVIL HOBBY EVIL ..............

I am very happy with my 2-ch rig (see sig) which hasn't changed in about 20 months, except for swapping the DL-103 for a DL-103R last month (which I love, btw!). However, I think it's safe to say I won't be content until I have a pair of Jubes in my living room. This won't happen until my next home though... this one just doesn't have the room for them.

Maron Horonzak:

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

Ah, Maron......you know that a gear or funding source could go a long way towards making my itch flare up........

Tubes are back on the top end with the Khorns.

Carl.

P.S. You should really see the new TV. It is really something..
