The system:

• “Oris 150” painted in White Pearl with “Lowther DX4”. Wooden phase plugs.
• Onken-cabinet with Vifa 10”
• The stands for the Oris horns are of my own design and they are decoupled with the “Skilfing” spring suspension system.
• On the top of the stands is a pair of “DRD45” from Welborne Labs, in the picture with TJ Mesh.
• The Onken-bass is amplified with a homebuilt pair of single ended transistor amplifiers.
• Turntable from the Swedish Rauna Audio opus3 “Continue” with a tangential arm “Cantus” pickup “Linn Arkiv”.
• Passive pre with “S&BTX102” Homebuilt with a built in nonos dac.
• DIY CD-drive using the Phillips CD-PRO2 mechanic
• Tuner: Nakamichi.
• In the window: Phonostage with mc-step-up, homebuilt.
• All cables are homemade. 99, 99% silver with cotton isolation.

The rack is built by my self and is made from selected wood and is a prototype from the Swedish audio furniture brand “Skilfing”. Between the equipment and the shelves I have the “Skilfing” CONES made from a very careful selected wood and in a special design for better sound.

How does it sound? MUSIC, other expressions aren’t necessary. But as a music lover and hifi interested guy I want to test some more “gear”.

Here are a few of my goals for the future: new cd-drive (on my workbench), new PSU for the DRD 45:s(on its way), enclosures for my Altec 515(on its way), new dac with USB, new drivers, more tube amps, and, and, and,………

Maybe, the never ending story...
