interesting! I def like the idea of having the matching pre and cdp. Mr Peabody, do you use a DAC with your cdp?

It would be amazing to make this whole system under $2000, but within a long span of time as thats a hunk of change for me! First comes the t-amp then on goes the show! The open baffle FR speakers I am building are going to cost way under $300! There going to be sweet when I am done. I did buy those Insignia bookshelfs to house the driver while I build the cabs. They sure don't sound bad for $60!

Going to take me about 6 months to build the cabs with the amount of spare time i have so they came warm up in the cabs in the mean time!
