I'll pay a visit just to ride in the elevator.
I'll second what Stuart said, I really like those Gallo speakers and your amps with all that Magnequest Iron. Plus I could spend days just browsing your record room.

Hi again, Long-time group member -- well, maybe not THAT long -- but just logging in here for first time. My "Wretched Excess" system currently has 29 tubes; SET monoblocks (845 output tubes, EL34/KT77 driver tubes, 6N7/ECC31 input tubes) built by Grover Gardner; Aesthetix Calypso linestage and Rhea phonostage; Otari and Teac open reel decks, with deHavilland 222 tapehead preamp; ModWright/Oppo 105 CD/SACD player with tubed PS; modded Lenco 75 turntable, JMW 10.5i arm with 3 armtubes, multiple carts; Empire 398 table for 78s, w/Audio Technica HOMC 78 rpm cart and Rek-O-Kut "re-equalizer"; Nakamichi BX-300 cassette deck; Tascam CD-RW700 CD recorder; PS Audio P10 power regenerator and Tice Power Block 3 power conditioner; and heaven knows what else. Oops, forgot the speakers: Gallo Stradas, modded floor stands, pair of self-powered Gallo TR-3 subs. Long-time Gallo owner, like these best of all I've had. Near technical-illiterate (every group needs a first one), but do make my own ICs, power cords, etc. Pretty huge collection of LPs, 78s, tapes, CDs, SACDs, cassettes. Retired CEO of marketing communications/advertising firm. Too old and creaky to host group visits but I welcome individual members, pairs, etc. Oh yeah, did recently buy new Porsche Boxster so I'm not totally over the hill. Best to everyone, Dave Pogue |

Your home, system and hospitality are absolutely first rate! It's a real pleasure whenever we have a chance to visit! Technical issues not withstanding, you are one of the cornerstones of this group! Thanks for being there for us and setting a high standard Dave! |

Dave, Welcome to this website. I belong in the same section as you (technically clueless DIYer) but like you I know what I like to listen to! -Pete |
