Hello from Berkshire, UK!
Thought I'd sign up and say hello as I've got a big passion for both modern hi-fi, 80's hi-fi and more than anything music.
Also mad on photography and classic film cameras from the 80's but that's another addiction.... And motorbikes. And cars. And sailing. Too many hobbies...
I've got a few systems knocking about, collected over the years.
The most modern system is as follows:
Denon DP37F Rosewood
Little Bear T8 phono pre-amp
Cyrus CD8SE (updated)
Cyrus Pre XPd Qx
Cyrus DAB 8.0
Cyrus PSX-R
Cyrus 8 Power
Sonos Connect
B&W 684s
Cyrus Tri-Arbour
Chord interconnects (various), Chord speaker cables and HF to LF jumpers replacing brass jumpers (Epic Twin).
I've got the following set up for TV and movie viewing:
Sony KDL-40X2000 LCD TV (bit old now but I love it and it doesn't have a stupid reflective screen like they all seem to these days.)
Denon AVR2807 Receiver
Mede8er MED400X2S (media player fed by networked ReadyNas)
Sony PS3 (Very rare movie and gaming duties)
JVC HR-S8700 SVHS (for nostalgic movie nights)
Sonos Connect
Audica CS System 1 speakers
Have a few Sonos Play 5s dotted around the house for bedroom/kitchen listening and parties too.
Then in the sitting room I also have a bit of an oldie but nonetheless interesting:
Denon DP37F Black
Marantz CD273 (utterly mint and picked up for £30 on eBay)
JVC AX-70 (an amp I had as a kid and one came up on eBay for £70, fairly mint so I had to have it)
Bose AM5 (always wanted a set when they were released in the late 80s, again found a mint set for £100 on eBay).
Next I'm going to build a heavyweight 80s Japanese system with a more than controversial speaker system, but will reveal more on this as the plan develops. Good to meet you all!
More photos to follow! :)1569015691156921569315694
