    I got a Dillion 650 press and a Magneto chrono from mom and dad. My kids made out like bandits from all the grand parents.

    Please, I'm a bit of a dummy when it comes to this stuff. What am I looking at? I get that it's a laptop connected to...something, and a stereo receiver...but what is it for? What does it do? What's the little black box with the bright light?

    Looks to me like a 2007 Macbook Pro music/video server. Aune T1 DAC. 1979 Yamaha CA=810 integrated amp. I thought everyone knew that...

    • Macbook Pro for the music/video.


    • Aune T1 tube DAC (digital audio converter). USB connection from the laptop. Better sound quality then the headphone port.
    • Yamaha C-810 integrated amp. 1979 vintage solid state. Warm sound and excellent clarity, even at higher volumes.


    Not sure if I will add a phonograph.

    Anymore questions?

    Thank you!

    What are you using for speakers?

    Gotta find a decent amp for @ $300. I'm going to look at Yamaha amps on Amazon.
