Are you satisfied with your hifi system?

I'm really glad to have the equipment I have now. It's all perfect for me.

Someday... some different speakers maybe. My present 2 pair of speakers sound good. I'm in no hurry for any replacements.

All sounds good... good enough.

 

Nope.

 

I was really happy then I run out of cash. My EAR amp started doing odd things, a friend said he could fix it, think he has finished it.
My Koetsu cartridge ran out of steam, I can not go back, but I am now enjoying music with a decade old PS3 and a Pioneer home cinema amp donated by my son, Playing through Sonus-Fabers.
My EAR CD player won't for some reason play through the Pioneer.

 

Very much. My last to purchases have really brought things together (ortofon SPU Classic GM E MKII & Fidelity research FR64s)

 

Excellent choice!

 

Satisfied with my system? Not after looking at the post pics of your rooms/spaces thread. Come on powerball...daddy needs a new set of mono block tube thingies...

 

Computers!

 

Not really, but it's alright until I get a house and more money coming in. I've had my system since the 80's. I have a small Crown pre-amp, tuner, and power and, and Frazier "Thing"speakers, 2 Nak cassette recorders, CR-7 & 680ZX, Denon CD player, and a B&O 3404 TT.

 

My bank account reminds me I am satisfied

Meanwhile, I have no right to be unsatisfied, though. I am lucky to have a complete "listening floor" in the basement. There lies the main plus office systems.

 

I fully enjoy what I have now and I know as most would agree that's there's always room for improvements but i don't lose any sleep over it

 

My system is pretty firmly in vintage hi fi land. The only thing less than 25 years old is the amp, but I like it and don't plan to change anything.

 

Update:
I'm satisfied now. I've added a Lyra Kleos cart, and I'm happy with my vinyl setup. The same goes for my digital disk replay, the amplification chain, the loudspeakers, power conditioning, cabling and room acoustic treatments. So, for all intents and purposes, I'm done upgrading.

However, there is one piece of the puzzle that is missing, and that is high resolution file playback. As I'm going to resume digitizing my vinyl I want to add some kind of media server. I'm in no rush, so I'll probably spend the better part of 2018 researching.

 

The system yes but not the room in which it resides. Unfortunately, short of moving there is nothing I can do about that.

 

I am satisfied but always curious about “what if...?”. I feel very fortunate to have assembled the rig I now have in place over a period of many years and upgrades along the way ( although I recognize it’s modest by many standards). I love the sound it makes, especially since diving back into vinyl a few years back. I’m also fortunate to have a wife that has never questioned the appearance of a new piece of gear, or box appearing on the front porch. Maybe it’s good she “doesn’t even like finished basements”!!

 

I am enjoying mine immensely... but I must admit I am tube curious.

 

Corn? In whisky? Pshaw! Single malts produce the best (perception of) sound quality.

 

Very satisfied with mine from the last improvement upgrading cd and adding sacd replay so not looking unless circumstances permit of any major changes in the near feature outside the odd tweak in room layouts.

 

I just sat in my bean bag and had a beer in front of my system, while listening to Charles Rouse 2 is 1 on vinyl. Now i class my system as modest. Its taken me a few years to get it together, had to sell some guitars to fund it, but there are no regrets.

As i sipped my beer, i was taken back to a hifi show i went to in Melbourne in October. Heard a lot of systems there. Very expensive ones.

Id put my system up against most of them.

Im not only satisfied with my system, Im deeply in love with it. I see (hear) no weak links and cant find a single thing I'd upgrade.

Theres no doubt members on here that would sneer at what i have, but I'm beyond happy with it. All i have to worry about is buying records. Sweet sweet records.

 

yes very much so.

 

Yep, I’m good. Speaker upgrade in December locked it in for me and shows off the rest of the components:
Rega RP8
Sumiko Pearwood Celebration 2
Parasound JC3+
Leben CS300XS (w/ NOS Mullard tubes)
DeVore O/93

 

I‘m totally satisfied with my system right now. Which does not mean I wouldn‘t be window shipping from time to time...

 

I agree. I am completely satisfied with my system even though I know technology has moved on in some areas. That I could upgrade if money was no object doesn't detract from the pleasure of listening. It's all about enjoying the music not being desperate to be at the cutting edge gear wise.

 

I'd better be after all the expenses and changes I went through during 2017, otherwise my SO will be satisfied that sadly I passed away in my sleep during the night sometime during 2018 because somehow my face got stuck under a pillow.

 

Yes, quite satisfied but in the words of Michael Schenker; But I want more...............

 

I am close to fully satisfied. Perhaps a speaker upgrade.
