Im thinking of buying a Transport with a maximum budget of $5000. This would finish up my system. I have Energy veritas 2.3i's,Sim Audio I-3,intergrated amp,Panamax 5100 conditioner,Kimber kable speaker wire and interconects.

Art Dudley's approach to dealing with, "You guys are all on the take." is another example of why his stuff is always worth reading. Though it won't, it should lay that issue to rest permanently.

About the MF watch, Art, rest easy. I have one too, and all I did was to send the folks at Signalpath a private e-mail saying I was happy with one of their products which I'd purchased. It keeps pretty good time.

Hi

Ive been posting for a while now and assembling my system using a combination of auditioning and learning.

Ive now got a Creek Evo CD, NAD C372 amp and Von Schweikert VR3 speakers, im using a good quality Vampire speaker cable with Monster interconnects.

The problem is that the system whilst being pretty dynamic is very uninvolving and feels almost cold. The music seems accurate but its just not drawing me in. Id like more warmth. rhythm and just general substance.

Guys need a little assistance here, I have a line conditioner & a voltage regulator, can I use both? If I can which one should I plug into first, meaning Regulator to Line Conditioner or the other way around?
