On the 2ch audio side of things

Well the speakers you've already seen.

The rest is HTPC/Media Server with bit perfect playback -> Overkill modded DEQX with I2S and multibit parallel's feeding 4x AKSA Lifeforce 55 and 2x AKSA Lifeforce 100.

Cables are Qed Genesis for the speakers and the interconnects are £5 Proel XLR's I don't place much weight in cables so you'll find nothing interesting there.

Its all geared toward low distortion and very good imaging and soundstage. I hope you'll find that its musical too, the performance is certainly tangible on the right recordings, its also quite visceral on high energy music, certainly not boring and that should be improved further...

...The system sounds great as it is but if your willing to hold out a little longer I'll have the subs I briefly discussed in the 'Thorsten' thread finished up for some real scale and bite to the system, at the minute its only playing flat down to 50hz but that was by design and I always intended for a sort of 3.5way setup.

Don't feel the need to hold out for the subs though, would be nice to hear the system complete but the system stands well without. So if you know you'll be in the area sooner then still come up and have listen, do you want me to PM my telephone no and address?
