New upgrades.
« on: October 28, 2011, 08:38:39 PM »
I have not been on in a while and my system has changed a lot since. The changes are my speakers are now Sony ss-tl5s which sound absolutely fantastic. I got a Sony SCD-CE595 super audio CD player. I still have my Yamaha DVD-C920. Also, I got a Biamp TC-120 and AMC AV81HTc-DD. My Philips is also still here and it sounds incredible with the Sony's. Here are some pictures let me know what you think.

Hey Mikey!

What do like most about the Sonys with the transmission line design?  Is the bass really good? is the imaging decent?

Thanks guys, The Sony's have nice deep bass and is clean the whole time. The imaging is also very good, the highs sound fantastic and are very clean. There is a lot of great things about these speakers. This is just a few.
Thanks again,
Little mikey

Those speakers were better than I anticipated. Don't be afraid to throw some power to them. They will take it!
I am confident that an SL-1200 is capable of outperforming turntables of much higher expense with minor modification.

Mikey has a great sounding system,   regardless of age.  That Philips integrated is freaking awesome!!  And the Sony speakers, well, you have to hear them to believe them!!   A perfect match to the Philips amp.
   

Those speakers were better than I anticipated. Don't be afraid to throw some power to them. They will take it!

  They do love high power solid state amps!!
