Price Paid:  $160.00 from Response Audio

Summary:
I just want to take this opportunity to thank Bill Baker of Response Audio in Endicott, NY. This is my first high end system and Bill basically put the whole thing together for me. I purchased everything you see below but the speakers from Bill. However, using Bill's expert advice, I listened to the Dynaudio Audience 72 loudspeakers from a local dealer and bought them right on the spot since they had the "warmth" & bass "slam" Bill said they would. This entire system gets better and better the more I listen to it. And it really wows my non-audiophile friends who can't believe it cost "only" $3000! Before Bill, I didn't know the difference between an audiophile interconnect cable and a 99 cent patch cord. Take my advice and call Bill Baker at 888-785-9773 if you are just catching the hi-fi bug like I am. You'll be glad you did. Check out my killer starter system:

Jolida 1501RC Integrated Hybrid Amp ($650)
Jolida JD603 Tube CD Player ($550)
Clarity Emberglow Interconnects ($85)
Clarity Emberglow Speaker Cable ($160)
Dynaudio Audience 72 Speakers ($1,439)

Strengths:
Pure, uncolored sound.

Weaknesses:
None.
