@linnie01 Thanks! You have alot of cool stuff. I’ve only had one Linn piece - it was a blue Linn Classik. I paired it in our MBR system with Quad 11Ls in piano gloss black. Really pretty, minimalist system, perfect for a bedroom. Alas, the Classik died a few years ago.
@mjcmt Thanks! Zoom in closely on my Vintage system and there you’ll see I have a little switch box that allows me to toggle between two-channel with the Leben (also EL-34) and home theater with an AV receiver. Maybe you can get that 4th EL-34?!
Lol, thanks! Yeah, I never really get rid of my stuff, I tend to repurpose it. Over 20 years ago, before we had a sunroom, the family room was where I had my main system, which included the Nak, and an Audio Refinement integrated and JMLabs speakers, the latter two of which are now in our MBR system. I picked up the Acoustic Zens from a place in Richmond 14 years ago while looking at colleges with my daughter - they were on consignment for a ridiculous price, so had to get them. And finally, I got the Triode used, again for a bargain, at the beginning of the pandemic when my big rig amp had to go in for repairs - I could not be without music during that time. So I’m really proud of that system because for not very much money, it sounds really good.
@jond Thanks! Actually it’s my 3rd system; check out my vintage system, which is the latest one I’ve put together for our recently renovated basement. Still, the family room system gets more use than you’d think - while it’s not set up well for critical listening, it’s the closest to the kitchen, so it’s the one we use when cooking or entertaining friends in the kitchen. As a result, we mainly use the Okto as a streamer.
