General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

I have listed the equipment in a post once before.

Somebody asked and I did. And that was that. Here it is again, my main system. It consists of two parts, a standard 2 channel system and an experimental "surround" system of my own devising but uses off the shelf hardware.

The main system currently consists of
JVC XLZ 431 cd player
HK Citation 11 preamp (system master)
Marantz 3800 preamp (slave)
BSR 10 band graphic equalizer
Klaus/Peterson Mosfet 120 power amp
pair of Teledyne AR9s with three additional 3/4 Audax poly tweeters per channel firing indirectly at the ceiling

other signal sources are
Teac dual direction 3 head cassette deck
Empire 698 turntable w/ Shure V15 Type V MR cartridge
Panasonic stereo hi fi VCR

The surround system consists of

Yamaha DSP1
Dynaco SCA 80Q integrated amp
Marantz 5100 receiver
2 10 band BSR equalizers
Sixteen RS Minimus 7 speaker arranged in four quadrants of 4 each around the perimeter of the room

All wires are ordinary non audiophile types.

The algorithms programmed into the DSP 1 are my own.

The system can be quickly switched between the conventional and surround mode.

The room is a standard "Toll Brothers" music conservatory which is approximately 14 x 30 x 9 1/2 and with a low pile burbur carpet is on the live side.
