    Default My little system

    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.
    Miljen

    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 ...

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    There are members with experience of the changes you have in mind.

    I suggest you take a look around the forum and find the appropriate sections, then ask some questions. I'm sure you'll get opinions and advice.

    'Techiepedia' for Technics questions: http://theartofsound.net/forum/forum...he-Techiepedia

    'Blank Canvas' for Naim and speaker questions: http://theartofsound.net/forum/forum...6-Blank-Canvas
