    My Hifi and Home Cinema Set Up

    Its been awhile since my last update on my set up. My set up has gone through major change and this year seems to be a year that I will most probably just enjoy the system rather than pushing for more. Current set up as below with the SPL Audio items are the latest addition to the family about...

    Dump my CDS ?

    If you fancy a PC-less ripping.. have a look at Bryston BOT-1 optical transport and the matching BDP-2 player. Attach a NAS or hard disk and the ripping can be done directly from BOT-1 to the NAS/hard disk. All can be controlled via iPad.

    PMC - fantastic Speakers, excellent aftersales service.

    I have to echo your opinion on their after sales service. I experienced the same with them eventhough I live on the other side of the world. And when they realized that I have been reviewing their 21, 23, 26 and C, they sent me the same 'goodies' as well. It is my office mug at the moment.

    Second hand amp recommendation for PMC twenty 23

    PMC twenty series have a good match with Bryston amps.... Try to look for Bryston B135 Integrated amp. Alternatively... Musical Fidelity M6i... I have reviewed it with 21, 23 and 26... And it was nice...

    My Hifi and Home Cinema Set Up

    Incorporated the Oppo HA-1 into my home cinema system to act as the 'main' DAC for this system. A big step up from feeding the Sony CDP XB930E digitally to the Yamaha AVR.
