Further Information

I bought this initially to match up with my Schiit Gumby (for sale separately) and Stellia.  It was a great system but since I moved my main system into my office I just don't listen to cans these days. 

The Schiit stack paired amazingly with my Perfectus Audio amp driving my Dunlavy SCIIIs.  Solo instruments or small ensemble recordings are simply fantastic.  My Mystery Pre/Plinius setup though edges it out (just). I have been swapping between the systems depending on what I am listening to, but find more and more I just listen to the Mystery/Plinius setup so decided to move these guys on.

I am looking to consolidate and upgrade the Gumby to a Yggy.  Happy to consider a trade on a Yggy.  Will consider a package deal with the Gumby.

Local pick up is fine.  Postage is easy as I have all the original packaging.  Buyer to cover any post and insurance costs.

I will miss my Bach violin played on this setup but we can't keep it all ;)
