Hello everyone.
My name is Miljen, and my little system consists of:
1) Technics 1210MK2, slightly modified with Micro Seiki MA701 tonearm, fixed custom CNC aluminium headshell, and Cardas tonearm wires from cartridge to DIN connector. I've recently bought Transfi Reso-mat, and taken off pitch control and light. Current cartridge is Ortofon MC15 Super II, but it is old and not sounding very good, so I've ordered Nagaoka MP110.
2) Pro-Ject PhonoBox II USB. It's really the worst part of the system, and I'm selling it in order to buy something better, but not expensive (thinking of Schiit Mani for 129$).
3) NaimUniti. Not much to say here.
4) Dynaudio Contour 1.3 with custom speaker stands filled with sand.

Cabling include Micro Seiki DIN to RCA tonearm wire, Mogami 2803 with Neutrik Pro RCA from ProJect to Naim, and Linn K20 2x4m as speaker cables.

Naim also receives digital signals from Sony BluRay BDP S790, and Apple TV, and I have an old laptop with Linux Plex music server on it, streaming FLAC to Naim via wired home network.

But, turntable is my gear of choice regarding more serious listening of music.
Best regards from me, and hope to enjoy my time on this forum.

Regarding music, I listen to anything I like, to be honest. Pink Floyd, The Doors, The Cure, Peter Gabriel, Talking Heads ... but then, I like also old rnb ... Al Green, Isaac Hayes, Barry White.
I plan to upgrade my Techie a little (feet maybe, external PSU), maybe add wooden sides, paint a plinth and platter. I would also like to buy NAIM power amp and to connect it to Uniti (NAP 200 or 155xs). I know that adding a Powerline would be beneficiarz, but that is too much expensive for me. I really like Dynaudio sound, so to change speakers it would take something really special ... :). Maybe try Klotz MC5000 cable ...
