I got back last night from a day trip down to Lake Oswego, OR to help Gary and Cindy Kerr of The Audio Gallery set up their gorgeous new ATR from Mike Spitz. Mike built them the most beautiful ATR I've seen (and if you know what an ATR looks like, beautiful isn't usually the first word to pop into your mind). He fabricated a rack mount in the bottom of the roll around into which is mounted one of our Tube Repros. The Repro is wired to the heads with a special cable designed by Caelin Gabriel of Shunyata Research.
After a bit of the usual fooling around with ground loop issues in the AC mains wiring that happens pretty much every time you set up a new system we were treated to a wonderfully silent setup. Gary and Cindy have Lamm electronics and one of my favorite speaker designs - Magico Minis - in the current setup. Cabling is, I believe, all Shunyata.
Man that first five seconds of analog tape always has the same effect on me. My shoulders relax, and I just get pulled into the musical flow. If you are anywhere near Lake Oswego (like within 3-4 light years) I encourage you to stop by Audio Gallery and hear the setup. Gary and Cindy are two of the nicest folks in the business, the store is very warm and inviting, and the tape just doesn't get much better than this.
