The BEST system you've ever built !!!!

Hi Mechans,

I agree
Cybers 800 are awsome, and no need to spred the news......:)
as long as you and i know what they really are , and how they sound.

I am interested in some replacement tubes for my amps but cost is a big factor . I had a good tube source but he rised his prices to the point that it is not even funny.

If you don' mind me asking.........
what is your source?

About Joe,

yes, his thoughts and his way of thinking is on par with mine.
I believe that his is a very good guy and I have all but respect for him as a person and as an importer of fine products to US market.

Just for the record
I don't know Joe personaly and never did any business with him. It is only my opinion.

My Cybers were the show demo (during NJ show).
I bought them right there and then and they served me well ever since.

Mechans, if you want to take your system to another level........you can have Bob Backert (he lives in PA)
perform the mod on your Cybers.

I can bet you that after Bob finish his magic , you will be amazed what was possible to squeez out of Cybers and I can tell you that it could be .....well.......your last amp(s) ever. (don't trust me.......but trust your ears)

My best friend (also an audiophile) came over the other day to listen to my new-always changing system and he was.....shocked (I am not BSing).

The only thing missing is preamp that would do them justice.
After few auditions and preamps that I bought over the last few months I have decided to give DODD AUDIO a chance and it will be arriving in a week or two. Then I will stop the crazy, expancive and long search for the best system that I can afford.
In the mid-time, I will try to put together my second(or more like 3th) system based on M&D mini speakers($1200), DECCO Peachtree($800+mod) integrated and possibly moded by Bob and Sonos wireless system($1400 multi-room setup) with power supply upgrade as the source together with my own replinthed MMF 7 turntable and Creek phono.

Take it easy and hope to hear from you ......soon :)

I'm pretty sure it's my current system:

McCormack RLD 1 Preamp

McCormack DNA 125 Amp

Sony DVP 9000ES DVD/SACD player

Channel Islands Audio VDA 2 DAC & VAC 1 P/S

Magnum Dynalab MD 90 Tuner

Velodyne SMS 1 Sub EQ/crossover

PSB M2 Platinum speakers

REL R-305 Subwoofer

Rega P3 TT with Ortofon OM30 cart.

NAD PP2 phono pre

Equi Tech Son of Q power conditioner

Harmony 880 remote

APL Denon 3910/Lamm LL2 Deluxe/Moscode 401HR/Von Schweikert VR4 Gen III HSE.

Sold off in 2006.

My new system is 90% there, and will eventually eclipse the above system.

TVAD YOU ARE SUCH A TEASE.

I will say the source is another APL Denon 3910, the speakers are Silverline Sonata III (which have been SOBs to find proper amplification), and the amps are Pass Labs XA-60.5. The speakers disappear in a manner the Von Scheikerts never did, and the sound is balanced from top to bottom. Slowly, I'm finding the combination of gear and wiring that gets the bass correctly (which I've found to be the trickiest aspect of the Sonata III).

I'm also using a KAB Technics Sl1210 MK II turntable with several mods. My LP collection is small, so this is not a primary source...but it sounds very good.
