Wardsweb's Main 2-Channel System

[Wardsweb]

It has been years since I posted anything about my main system. I recently pulled out the Antique Sound Labs 845 mono blocks and put in an Ayon Crossfire III amp. The rest of the system is a Clearaudio Turntable, Shanling SACD, DIY 6H30 preamp, EAR phono pre, Auralic Altair music server/streamer and a PS Audio power conditioner. The speakers are DIY (Altec 802-8G on 511 horn, JBL 077 tweeter and JBL 2235H woofer).

What was a dining room, that turned into another listening room.

The sun room is kind of a catch all. I may have a problem ...

I've always had a thing for speakers and I must say that yours are some of the most beautiful I've seen.

Those are some nice systems you have there. Welcome back.

If fires through to the den for home theater. There is a window that used to go to the back yard, now a sunroom, since the patio was enclosed.

How are those Smith horns working out? What I got from you is still in storage. At least you finish your projects.

I love the horns. Not only do they look great, but they sound wonderful and have great dispersion.

Here is a picture taken during the build. It is natural light and a look at the crazy grain.

Some beautiful gear there for sure.  That Bubinga is TOTALLY outta the box!  Yea, even though the rest haven't said anything, I will.  😂  You really DO have a problem!  Addiction to anything is problematic!  You've got that first step down.  Admittance.  WB!  We're ALL in this together!  I'm just not admitting it.  Yet!   😂  😂  😂
