Whats your system?

WOW!! I'll say. There's one listed on Amazon for $900.00. But would you sell it though?

For $900... nah... it will be worth more in the future... even if it is not, it is a great conversation piece

In the Living Room:

Rotel RCD965 Discrete CD Player

Project Debut Turntable  

Rotel RSP960-AX Pre-amp

Two Rotel RB970-BX MkII Power Amps running in mono

Kef Reference 104/2s (bi-wired).

All linked together by custom made system and speaker cables and sitting on a Target TT stand.

Squeezebox Duet

                                                                                                                                               

                                                                                                                                               


Conservatory:

Kenwood  DP-X9010 CD Transport

Kenwood  DA-9010 Amp/DAC

Triangle Norma Speakers

Granite Slabs (£3.76 from a builders' yard)

Squeezebox Duet

                                                                                                                                               

                                                                                                                                               




Both systems together cost me around £200 thanks to finding the Kefs in someone's garage and getting them free and picking up the Kenwood Combo with Target Stand for £15, the Rotel/Triangle set up for £120 and the Project TT for £65. The squeezeboxes were a later edition - have 4 around the house.

Don't really like sending pics out over the net.However, i have recently bought a Panasonic TH-58PF11EK professional plasma monitor, that have Musical Fidelity Referance 2 speakers attached.The hi-fi system i have had since it was 13 months old, this consists of an Arcam Alpha 8 cd player, Alpha 9 integrated amp, Alpha 7 tuner and B&W P4 floor standing speakers.The separates are sitting on an Apollo 3 tier stand.

Updated sig as have just replaced Transfiguration Phoenix cartridge with Ortofon Per Windfeld. Even allowing for the Phoenix being well used, still a significant improvement. Deeper soundstage, sweeter upper frequencies and fuller but well controlled bass with less surface noise.

Any pictures Keith?

wowsers Keith, that PW is a serious cart (as is the phoenix of course!). what phono / SUT are you using?

not heard any of the top line ortofons, a friend has the transfiguration orpheus which is an amazing cart, though he's gone all MM at the moment!

I admired what you have achieved for the little outlay. £15 for the Kenwood and target stand - Impressive

Here's my accumulation of parts, some bought, mostly scrounged for free and restored/improved with new/superior parts.

Bedroom system:

A TNT style flexi rack is coming eventually, i just haven't got around to buying the parts to make it.
                                                                                                                                               

Luxman L-220 integrated amp - Rescued from a work clearout, heavily upgraded it when i restored it back in spring
Marantz CD-56 - My TDA1541 player, bought new by my dad, minor modifcations
Philips CD930 - My bitstream player, new capacitors
The old sony vaio mp3 player doesn't tend to get used, just lives there.
                                                                                                                                               

Home made speakers built on the Kef Chorale design using old goodmans cabinets. (Kef B200 SP1063 woofers and SEAS 22TFF tweeters with an adapted falcon 37K crossover) They are sat on atacama SL400 stands. In serious need of new grille cloth.
                                                                                                                                               

Thorens TD160B with SME 3009 S2 improved arm & Shure M75ED T2 cartridge with Jico SAS stylus - owned from new, waiting for me to find and buy a new stylus for the AT-30E MC cartridge i have stored away.
