It's a rainy day and GraphicFX is coming over in the next couple of days to check out the Crown amp I have for sale. It's a good excuse to break out some gear I haven't touched in a while and get a setup he can demo the amp with. Test setup is as follows:
Marantz 1200
Crown PS-400
Ipod
River Current Cables
Advent Maestros
Holy crap is all I can say. Maybe it's the room, maybe it's the combination of all parts but holy sh$t does this setup sound good. I've been listening to the Amorphous Androgynous album "Alice in Ultraland" (highly recommended if you haven't heard it). Incredible. You're getting a hell of an amp Andrew!
***Sorry for the crappy photos. Iphone with equipment in front of windows = sh$tty***

Great test setup Rev

Every bit of that is good quality components. I bet it sounds good, never under estimate those Advent Maestro's.

I wish I had that kind of stuff to sell! How can you part with such great stuff - better yet, where do you get this stuff. I'm luck I can find a pair of "Blowse" (BOSE) speakers here in CNY. Vintage audio is hard to find. Any of it. Check out our Craigslist. I end up looking at Rochester, Albany, or Binghamton if I need to get a fix. Even then, it is few and far between. Mostly car shit, or the good old all in one systems, you know CDP/Tuner/Tape all in one pieces of crap.
Nice setup. Someone's going to be very happy.

That is a nice test setup!

When you're selling Crown, you are in the drivers seat!!!!!! I haven't understood how to get rid of good equipment yet!....Doubt I will!!!!! :P :P :P
