arcam cd62t out to Rotel rc 1070 pre out to audiosource Amp 3 out to Paradigm Studio 60. two channel is still my love. the rotel and audiosource combo replaced an NAD C320 Bee that was a great little integrated, but going to separates with a bit more powerful amp has added a certain sense of ease and control, as well as a deeper perception of depth to the soundstage. Also it affords the hopeless tweaker more options to fiddle. And those spikes on the Arcam are Audio Selections points from music direct, about 20 bucks for set of four, they look ab-fab, have a surprising heft to them, and maybe focused low-level detail a hair, but who knows. My move to a smaller, more rectangular living room, no cathedral cielings, and a closer nearfield position had far more effect on the music than any component switch i've made thus far. Fooey. But it sounds even better now.
