![]() ![]() Personally I will not buy any component that has RGB, it's as simple as that and I am sure there are many more of us out there, we don't care about how a PC looks, we care about how well it runs software, we care about keeping costs and temperatures down while pushing the limits of the hardware to the very edge of what's possible, we are not the least bit interested in displaying the interior like a baboon displays it's mulitcoloured rear-end when trying to attract a mate. ![]() Someone needs to call this BS out for what it is, and the manufacturers need to understand that the #1 concern for right thinking PC designers is getting the best bang for their buck and extracting the best possible performance that they can from the components, and making things bigger in order to accomodate useless RGB lighting and the extra wiring etc that is required (as well as added heat and expense) is a mugs game, and we can only hope the mass hysteria that is the RGB delusion epidemic ends as abruptly as it began. A little unobtrusive lighting that is there to serve a practical purpose is fine.īut I am disgusted with the major manufacturers, I get that there's a market for RGB like there's a market for Justin Beiber and Big Macs, but the way they have decided to put RGB into everything is so disappointing, it's like they themselves have forgotten the core principles that underpin this great hobby. Imo RGB makes any serious rig look unprofessional. Usually I use a static colored light fan for that. In fact, the only reason I put lighting in my case is so I can check on the capacitors and take action if they start to bulge. Why that is so, my mind boggles, but apparently manufacturers think they know better. Even workstation motherboards like X399 and X299 chipset for workstation CPUs have RGB. It was a very productive 2020 being stuck at home during COVID :) thanks for checking it out.Originally posted by RAMChYLD:I guess I'm one of those who agree, but yeah. No room treatments or anything like that, this is my living room so not a lot of leeway in that area HA! But it still sounds incredible, huge soundstage, excellent transparency, and while the Snells only go down to around 49Hz, it is REAL usable / tactile bass at that region with excellent dynamics.Īlways working on something new, but very happy with where my system is right now. Wiring: speaker and interconnects are all DH Labs Silver Sonic. Stands: Custom Sound Anchors for my Snells. #Ilike tubes drivers#Speakers: Snell J/II, restored by me, drivers and tweeters replaced, crossovers re-done. ![]() ![]() The power supply is in a separate chassis to keep AC away from the signal path only DC in the phono chassis.Īmplifier: DIY 801A-based single-ended class A2 design, 7W into 8ohms, featuring custom-made Sowter mains and output transformers. Lundahl MC step-up transformer > D3a first gain stage > passive RIAA > EF86 second gain stage > Miflex copper foil cap-coupled output. The turntable was restored by me, the tonearm was rewired for balanced outputs to a pair of three-pin XLR. Turntable: Thorens TD125 MKII with Hana EL MC cartridge. This is a NOS R2R design with E182CC tube output stage. I am a tube DIY addict.ĭigital transport: Innuos ZEN Mini MK3 with LPSU run as a Roon core.ĭAC: SW1X Audio Design DAC II. Most is in the spirit of DIY, and very much a tube-amplified system. Wanted to show my system in full, have had a roadmap in mind for it which is finally complete. ![]()
