    • Krell evo 400's
    Loving the improvement over the 400cx
    • Martin Logan CLX
    Incredible full range electrostat
    • Resolution Audio Cantata 3.0
    I was looking for something that was similar to my Wadia no real surprise the Cantata fit the bill.
    • Synergistic Research Fire Wire and Galileo USB
    I am using a SR cabeling between the LaCie 6 TB hard drive and the active USB cable from the Mini to the Cantata
    • Synergistic Research Powercell MK III
    Everything is plugged into the Powercell. Non Current limiting
    • Synergistic Research Tranquility Bases
    Using them under the mac Mini and Hard Drive as well as the Cantata.
    • Synergistic Research Transporter Ultra SE
    The transporter replaced all of the MPC's cleaned up the wiring and a nice improvement in the sound.
    • Synergistic Research MIG's
    Using these under the Tranquility bases and the Hard drive. Amazing little devices.
    • Synergistic Research Element Copper Silver 20 amp
    These are used on the Krell 400's
    • Synergistic Research Element Copper 15 amp
    These power the CLX's
    • Martin Logan Depth I,s
    After listening to a couple different ML subs, I felt these were the best match, they do have the CLX modules installed
    • Synergistic Research Atmosphere level 4 Speaker Cables
    • Synergistic Research Atmosphere level 3 D power cord
    This is powering the Cantata
    • Synergistic Research Galileo Speaker and interconnect Cells
    • Synergistic Research Atmosphere level 3 balanced interconnects

    • Roon Rock RS9 RS9

    8th Generation Intel Core i8
    8GB RAM
    128 GB SSD system and database drive
     4TB SSD music storage drive

    Completely silent. Extremely fast. Rock Solid. The on-board 4TB SSD makes album look ups substantially quicker than network attached drives. No more worries with network issues or wondering if ROON is still running as an App on the network. The perfect way to run ROON.

System edited: I finally got rid of the BIG BOX and the Imaging has improved drastically. I also have to give a plug for Tigerdirect.com I ordered the Plasma set on Tuesday and had it on Thursday. a very professional outfit.

If you do a search here and google for Great Northern you will come up with quite a few sites. The Wadia 861 on its own is a fantastic player with the GN mods it goes to another level improvements in all areas.

I finally got rid of the BIG BOX and could not be happier.

System edited: Two changes I would like to make. 1. Get rid of the TV 2. Wish I could have afforded this system when I was 20 instead of 50
