Post photos of your systems/rooms here! (Part 15)

Thanks. When I listen after work vinyl is ~ 80%. During the day while working I stream radio from the Sony HAP.

 

thank you !

 

sounds like an excellent challenge to me !

 

If one can substitute beer for vodka or bourbon I am in!

 

AGREED

 

My 15-year-old daughter mainly subsists on Spotify/Airpods but recently requested a turntable and I was happy to oblige.

Brought my KAB SL-1200 MkII out of its recent retirement wielding the Audio-Technica AT-VM95EN that came stock on my Schiit Sol and the KEF Q100s came up from the basement.

Digital source is one of my 2011-vintage Squeezebox Touch that she'd been using with a pair of JBL LSR 305. All hooked up to an NAD C 316BEE V2.

Bought those IsoAcoustics stands at goodwill for $4 each on a whim a few months ago with no use for them but they do usefully decouple the speaker vibrations from the dresser. Those and the Isonoe footers make LP playback pretty shake-proof.

 

what it's all about....

 

Well done what a great little system and another budding audiophile/music lover!

 

I'm curious how you're liking the new amp compared to the parasound?

 

SOB! That’s a great pairing

 

I like it a lot but still getting used to it! Follow the thread here if you like...

Pass Labs XA25 Anyone?

 

I've gone from Decware and Rega to Muzishare and Dual (for the moment):

 

Looking good and lovely room! Is the new combo an improvement?

 

That is a bad a$$ setup. I even saved a photo. Beautiful job!

 

I love seeing absolutely mint vintage hifi and that turntable is a great example. Nice choice !

 

No, not an improvement unfortunately, just good fun. The Muzishare sounds great, but can't beat my Decware amps for moderate to low listening levels. And the 1229 is a definite step down from my RP3 with ttpsu and Groovetracer upgrades. It's a bit wooly and has pitch/speed issues, among other problems, lol. Quite the looker, though.

 

Looks incredible Tony!

 

Many thanks! (You should see the TD-160 I'm about to drop into the rack -- hubba hubba!)

 

Nice setup, she has.

 

Lovely!

 

Looking small next to the Cornwalls, the SB16 makes it's presence known...

 

A Nelson Pass designed amp WILL be on my rack one day! Congrats on your new amp.

 

Love the painting I almost didn't notice the gear that's nice too.

 

Thanks! It's a Leroy Neiman serigraph from 1961 (same age as me) titled The Stags Head - Dame Court, Dublin. I bought it in 1993. It's always been one of my favorite pieces of art.
