Might be interesting to see what everyone is using. I have a three way custom dynaudio speaker system hand built with my EXR-5. What else is everyone using?

Got a pair of Hsu Research HB1 Mk2s with a Hsu STF-2 sub. Using a PAT-5 FET-II and an Omega III 260.
Sounds pretty darn good to these old, tortured ears! Best system I've ever owned in 50+ years of hifi/stereo
and music involvement.

Magneplanar 1.7's w/Ohm sub. Driving with an Avastar pre and UltraFet 550+ double. Very nice combo.

Tannoy System 12 DMT II. 95db sensitivity currently being biamped with a pair of AVA 550's with a phase inverter monoblock setup. I like the dynamics, clarity, and imaging of this system.

Dynaco A25XLs, modded (from 1976).

I used these for 33 years. Can you guess what they were?

I got a pair of these last year.

I use all Frank's stuff, look at my system.

What you have there is a naked DQ-10.

Nope -- not the hockey player either. I'm a bit older than both.

A System = B&W 803S
B System = Ohm Walsh II with upgraded Walsh 100 drivers.

Very happy with both, haven't heard anything significantly better.

B&W 330i since 1987 - changed the tweeters for Vifa units.
In my second system I use a Pair of KEF Cantata from around
1980 with B139, 110 and 052 elements. I like the KEFs a lot.
