I learnt and built audio pre-amplifier and power amplifier when I was 14 years old (30+ years ago) and have very much interest on building super HiFi to entertain myself, unfortunately I was too busy on my R&D job and therefore I cannot build a super HiFi until now. In order to save time I am spending money to buy and test different super high end audio system in my house and the following is my current system. It's sound great.
Until now I have time to reinstate my dream to build my system from parts to parts. My current equipment is used as a benchmark for my design.
My first design is power cord and interconnect.
I have set up a discussion forum for anyone who have interest to share the system design and I will also spend time on answering all questions that I know.
