Great post Daddyjt. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

Thank you Zenith4me. My pleasure.

Thank you. Everyone has been very kind. Great forum.

Mirage M-1 speakers, Energy Vertas, Celestion SL-700, ProAc, Snell, Dunlavy, Wilson Audio are on the bucket list. I have the Celestion SL-6S and SL-6SI. 3.3 might very well be the end game but I want to hear some others and resell them after hearing them. End game system don't mean the hobby and the fun ends.

Nowhere to put my Six vintage EPI, Four vintage Advents, PSB and B&W speakers...lol. Had Vandersteens, Thiel, Spendor, Spica, Yamaha and some others on my bucket list. Just don't have the room. Once I move some of it I'll make room for the new. I'll listen to it and sell it. Fun just to hear new stuff I never heard. But nothing I know of will replace the 3.3. Got to move a Creek 5350se and 5250se eventually.

My B&K st-140, Proton D1200 Proton 1000 and Technics SA-800, SA-600, SA-500 equipment had to take back seats. But I'm in the process of setting up VTI racks to display them and keep them juiced up.

I used to own the 2.5. Right now I have the 3.3 in original boxes, two 2.9, three AC2, four original made in USA Super ones, four Super Zero original made in USA black and two Super Zero original made in USA in white. One set of Super Ones made in USA original are new in boxes. I'm driving the 3.3 with the Creek Destiny and the sound is awesome. The Aragon 8008bb amplifier is a new toy I just hooked up to a small pair of Polk 25i speakers just to test it and it sounds great. Going to see how it sounds with the Aragon 8008bb Adcom GFP-750 preamplifier. The Aragon 8008bb amplifier was designed by Dan D'Agostino from Krell and the Adcom GFP-750 preamplifier was designed by Nelson Pass.

Thank you.

Yes thats an option. The Creek sounds a bit tubey itself.

Cool, tubes are nice. I was thinking about buying a tube phono stage or a Schiit Audio phono preamp but I decided to install the Creek phono card and I already had the audio technica SUT.

You hit the nail on the head Andrew. I have the Denon 103r. Also Audio Technica cartridges both mm and mc with the audio technica 650 mc transformer.

No I've had this gear for awhile except for the Adcom GFP-750 which I recently picked up. Bought everything separately. My 3.3 are black. Nice shape aside from a few minor nicks. Original boxes too.

Sorry for the repeated post.

I also have 4 Sunfire Carver Signature 2700 watt subs. Not hooked up though. Don't want to anger the neighbors...lol.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I'm driving the 3.3 with the Creek Destiny integrated amplifier and alternating with my Adcom GFP 750 preamplifier and Aragon 8008bb amplifier.
