Mufit values bass quality and rendition more than any other characteristic and for this purpose drives the low frequencies with a stereo Krell FBP 600 amp while the mids and tweeters are driven with two mono ARC Reference 600 power amps. Although there is no external crossover the system sounded very balanced from top to bottom. Mufit thinks that power is the key element for good sound ("more is better" he says). We also noticed that the Shakti Stone placement on top of the Wadia D/A converter makes the mids fuller: a valuable tweak!

Mufit's comments about his System:

AA: "Mufit, how would you describe your system's sound?"
MO: "It has big sound stage, good focus, good bass definition and natural tonality."
AA: "Do you think there is room for improvement?"
MO: "Yes, I would want to add more detail to the mids and more volume to the low frequencies."
AA: "Have you got plans for upgrading?"
MO: "Yes, I'm planning to change the interconnects to Transparent Reference and the speaker cables (for mids and tweeters only) to Transparent Reference also. At a later stage I'm thinking of upgrading the low frequencies' amp to Krell 650 mono's and adding an active crossover."
