Infinity IRS BETA Servo with Balanced Pre/Amps

He'd kill me if I said so,but,"He really liked the Shaded Dog stuff".Also his set-up of RS-1b's are driven by really old Krell bass amps,with a C.J. Premier 8 on top.The pre is an ART with the C.J. phonostage,andVPI TNT with(the piece de resistence)AIR TANGENT arm and TITAN cart.Trust me on this HE KNOWS WHAT GREAT SOUND IS,and gets it IN SPADES.So should you from the direction you're heading.P.S.I have been to quite a few REALLY HIGH PRICED and MEGA-BUCK set ups in the NYC area with owners that were totally convinced that they were audio-gurus,non of them can TOUCH my friend's set-up in terms of real 'HARMONIC ACCURACY" and bloom.My friend could care less about the latest craze stuff,or pricy,shiney,schmaltzy eye candy that is so much "IN" today."think Jonathan Scull here" for his rediculous obsession with everything that GTT AUDIO seems to be Pushing at the moment.My friend's set up is an incredibly well thought out syst.that simply leaves me weak every time I hear it.I have learned(from him) that to get great sound you must be a "thinker" more-so than a spender.

Please excuse me.I meant jonathan valin.Scull really seemed like a genuine person,sadly missed by me at least!

Hey.....yes, I was right and so were you!!!! I heard the RS 1-B's you are talking about!!! I was at the great "Shady-Marks" house a few times. I agree with you 100% about his system and his listening ability.

P.S. Are you in the NYC area? I might know you also?

I moved to NJ some years ago.If you know Dave Nemzer or ED Maron,as well as the GREAT MARKS we may have met.Also,do you know REINA,as he has a bunch of pals,some of which I've met.

I know Dave as I am also a member on the NY Audiophile club (although don't attend many meetings). We probably have met...do you know "the great Ross"??
