Hi I am Rob from Philadelphia area. Retired from field of Information Technology. Consider myself an audiophile of 50+ years. My primary system consists of a Schiit Freya + PreAmp, Schiit BiFrost 2 DAC, Emotive XPA2 Gen3 Amplifier, Audiolab 6000 CD Player, B&O Beograd 4004 turntable and Dahlquist DQ10 Speakers. During Covid, I rebuilt the Crossovers for the speakers and had the woofer reformed. I am very close to purchasing a Pair of Magnepans; trying to decide between 1.7i, 1.7x or 2.7i? Nice to meet everyone...look forward to sharing and learning.
