My name is Russell (Russ) Marcks.  I'm an Engineering professor at a community College and a hopeless audiophile.  I currently own a Rogue Stereo 90 outfitted with Gold Lion KT88 reissues, Sylvania Brown Base 5692's, and Telefunken 12ax7's.  My preamp is an Antique Audio passive unit.  The table is a highly modified AR ES-1 with a Jelco 750 and a Goldring Legacy cartridge modified with a ruby cantilever and line contact diamond playing through a Musical Surroundings Nova II phono preamp.  I also have a Linn with an Ittock arm but do not have a cartridge for it yet.  My CD Player is an older Pioneer Elite 65.  I also have a Benchmark ADC1 to take vinyl to digital.  My Network player is a Cambridge Stream Magic 6 v2...it's OK, I only use it for background music anyway.  Everything is plugged into a Chang Lightspeed power conditioner.  Finally, my speakers are vintage Mission Argonauts with upgraded crossovers, stiffened cabinets, weighted bases, outriggers, and upgraded domes.  I will be upgrading to Joseph Audio Perspective's, but that may take me a while.  I have started upgrading my interconnects and have settled on the Darwin Truth II cables.  Speaker cables are Harmonic Tech PRO 11+

That's about it for now.
