I'm Massimoo, a long-time audio enthusiast based in Netherlands / Saudi Arabia. Over the years, I’ve built a system that reflects my passion for musicality, — especially when it comes to classic 60s and 70s recordings and lively Latin, Blues and Jazz.
My current audio setup is as following:
Speakers: Blumenhofer FS2 MK2 with IsoAcoustics Gaia II feet
Amplification: Pass Labs INT-60 and VTL IT-85 Series II (also have a VTL IT-80 MK2 with various NOS tube combinations including Mullard and Phillips XF2)
Digital Front-End: Magna Mano Ultra 3.5 streamer with Farad Super3 LPSU → AudioQuest Vodka (I²S) → Holo Audio May KTE DAC
Vinyl Source: Transrotor Zet1 turntable with SME 309 tonearm, TMD bearing & Konstant Reference controller, fitted with a Hana ML cartridge
Phono Stage: Primare R35
Cabling & Accessories:
Power: Furutech DPS 4.1 & FP-S55N cables
Interconnect: Atlas Arran XLR, Purist audio design Posiedon SE interconnect
Ethernet chain: Matrix Audio isolator + SoTM dCBL-CAT7
Power conditioning: Synergistic Research PowerCell 8, SR atmosphere Level 3
Fuses: SR Master (amp), Purple (phono & streamer)
I’m always exploring ways to fine-tune the synergy between components and welcome discussions on tube rolling, digital tweaks, and room interactions. Looking forward to learning from this community and sharing experiences!
Warm regards,
Mohamed
