OK, I'll be the one who breaks down and asks:  Romy, please share about how the system is sounding these days.

I figured you had your hands full with channels integration and balancing, but as I recall you did have one Channel fully operational a while back.

Basically, having followed along so far, I am more than a little curious about how things are coming together.

Are you able to sit through a meaty LP concert via the full-tilt system yet?

Same question, but CD?

My hands are very far from being full with channels integration and balancing – that all was done months back and I do not play with it since winter when I finished the second Milq. Relatively recently I chanced a frame on Macondo’s MF channel but it was not a big deal. So, I do not do anything with Melquiades’ or with Macondo, those projects are officially over and I just use the results. The sound?  Sound is fine, the way how it was made.
 
I do not listen LP lately and I am waiting when my mechanic will make for me the box for my final phonostage – my current is dissembled.  I still slightly fight with CD results as the late Bidat modification went not exactly in the direction that I would like to. FM is 90% of my listening nowadays.

The only outstanding problem that I see is electricity. The damn PurePower people blew another deadline and I at this point have very little expectation that they will be able to furnish me with a properly operating unit. They themselves know what it might be. Considering that over the last year I did not have chance to actually USE any properly operating regenerator I proposed them return the unit and to terminate my expectation from them. It is very sad as the direction is very prospective and if the right people were on the task then it might be a very fertile solution. It is pretty much it: if I had a power solution then I would not have any problems with sound organization.

Beside if that I am very comfortable with Sound that I am getting.
