Title: Cheap and cheerful Crowd
Post by: dflee on 5 Sep 2022, 02:20 am: This one goes out to all the guys and gals out there in our obsession with C&C systems.
I have two pair of Triode Wire Labs spirit interconnects. While not being the latest and greatest from TWL, they are pretty darned good to the extent that I bought two of them from TWL for my system. They will blow away any stock cord you have and are in perfect condition.
I am putting these up as a single pair each being 1 meter single ended.

Don

It took me many a year to get to the system I now have.
I am wanting to help those just getting started (and on a fixed income) to get
something above average (actually pretty decent) for their systems.
Guess I'll change this to the first couple of newbies that reply here with pretty much a starter system
give me a shout cause "this Karma's for you".
And if any of you know of someone as described, have them get in on this.

Office C&C system

Post by: dflee on 5 Sep 2022, 03:08 pm: I apparently didn't make the original post clear.
This is for people with JUST C&C systems, not a mega system with a C&C on the side.
I'd like for these to go to someone who is trying to get their feet wet without spending big bucks to do so.
One number has been guessed by sonicxtc but doesn't have a system posted. I will leave it up to sonicxtc"s
conscience to send me address or withdraw. Should he withdraw it will be put into another Karma.

Thanks everyone

Post by: sonicxtc on 5 Sep 2022, 09:55 pm: Sorry, I didn't know I needed to post the system.
Parasound zdac $200 used; Temple Audio Bantam chip amp, $150 used; an old pair
of Yamaha mini bookshelf speakers leftover from a circa 2000 mini component system.
I hope that helps.
Thank you

I PMed my address.

I missed that part.
IF you are aiming for an audiophile with JUST a single system which is C&C, then I respectfully thank you for your generosity and will pass. I do have a main system and and office system. I apologize for not reading the thread more carefully.

Very cool and generous of you to offer to do this. :thumb:
I’m inclined to follow suit with something similar.
