Sacrilege! :eek:

:D

But seriously, if you look for this Tullibardine, say, on TWE:

then for this money you can buy these bottles:

https://www.thewhiskyexchange.com/p/1665/clynelish-14-year-old
https://www.thewhiskyexchange.com/p/1814/dalwhinnie-15-year-old

Don't get me wrong, Tullibardine 500 is not bad at all, but this whisky is not in the Clynelish/Dalwhinnie/Ben Nevis class.
 
New toy, Modwright KWI 200, it is a SS amp that sounds very valvelike but has 200W into 8 ohms 400/4 and 800/2 which shows it to be a very powerful amp. Sounds absolutely fantastic with the primes.

Someone should start a Single Malt (Scotch Whisky) snob thread?

Very impressed gentlemen. Two lovely systems with some real out of the box thinking. Bet they sound great.

Enjoy!
 
I think they're ATC SCM25A actives.

Yes, that's right. They are fed with the output from a Benchmark DAC2 which in turn is fed by an RPI/Hifiberry Digi+ pro running as a Roon endpoint. Music is stored on a Synology NAS (powered by a UPS) in a cupboard and all network connection is via cat6 ethernet. The output from the RPI runs through a MiniDSP box running Dirac which smooths out room issues and helps integrate the SVS Ultra 13 Subwoofer.
