Hi Michael. Yes, now I have 4 different amplifiers that will be tested when Kharma leaves the room I am looking forward to hear what I have missed over the years.

Update on the NAD from Mats
"I connected to the NAD amplifier today. The system needs to be on for a few days before I listen. Right now it doesn't sound particularly good, except the soundstage is bigger.
I removed the plastic feet, the bottom plate, the wire strips, loosened the screws and cleaned it, lots of dust."

Greetings Mats and Michael
Reading this about the NAD amp and Michael's recent reply to my question on how people may hear the same system/same music track and yet perceive the soundstage differently, Sonic is inspired to get back into some Tuning in my system.
A good place for me to (re)start may be to remove the top cover and the bottom cover (with the feet) of my Quicksilver preamp like Mats did with the NAD.
This could free blockage while not incurring too much risk of EMI and RFI intrusion. The tube preamp has a moderate bandwidth and there are no high gain sections. A phono stage has very high gain and can pick up grunge from the air and surrounding equipment, while the DAC and computers emit plenty of nasties in the KHz and MHz range so I am keeping these shielded in their Faraday cages for now.
Let's see what music Sonic hears from this.

Hi Sonic
Removing the chassis works more positively than negatively after what I've heard.
After 24 hours settle, Nad 302 begins to sound very good. It is easy to hear that I use fewer components in the system now.
I want to remove the led light and maybe remove the faceplate. Not sure how much faceplate on this amplifier affects the sound since it's made of plastic.

Big changes happening with Mats' system. I'll share pictures and quotes, as well I'm sure Mats will be joining in.
a facebook post featuring Mats' Rev 6 Signatures.

Then the Rev 6 Signature received. I have been playing music for a few days now and all of the music I have played both known and unknown music is really fun to listen to! Everything sounds so engaging and musical !
Rev 6 Signature
Pioneer SA-5300 and Magnavox MDV-2300 with Rev 6 speakers

Listening to free resonant speakers is a completely different experience than listening to ordinary audiophile speakers!
"My system has been playing music all night something I could not do before due to no remote control. It has really increased the sound quality considerably. Best free upgrade I know of! If I do this for a few more days, maybe it's even better. Exciting."

Hi I'll get my own listening room soon! I'm going to use the main bedroom for a listening room. I'm painting the walls what will be the new bedroom now. When I get the bed out of the room that will be the listening room, I will take pictures. This is going to be fun!

Hi! Then I got a room that can be used for music! I will take away the large closet that you see, but it will not happen until May. The red box you see I will deliver to my parents. I will also take away the pictures that you see. I deliver the Kharma speakers to someone I know during next week who will test them out, maybe he will buy them. The room is 12 sqm, so it is not that big. I think I will get good sound with good help from Michael and the rest of you.

Hi Mats
I love smaller rooms! They're so much fun building up the pressure.

Hi Tj. Thank you. Yes it's great to get my own listening room. When things fall into place and get the acoustics in order, I am convinced that I will enjoy lots of music in this room for many years to come. I hope you're all right and you get the sound you want in your home.

Hello. I have bought a streamer! :-O There is a possibility of purchasing an external power supply to it. Then I'll have to remove the one that's internal. The question, - what do you think I should do, keep it as it is or buy external power supply? The original power supply is a small switch mode power supply.
The power external power supply name is SBOOSTER BOTW P&P ECO MKII
