Suggestions from all you wise ones

This may be long but I will try to be brief. 63 years old, spent $1200.00 back in 1974 for my system. I'm known around my circle as a music nut. I only have a couple of friends that are into music as I. But, they have no systems, they would be happy listening to some old Zeppelin through a sea shell. I've been following this site for months and feel really upset that I'm missing out on my number one passion, music. I'm running a new NAD C165BEE That replaced my old Adcom GTP-500 II that started having balance problems, a Adcom GFA-555 II amp which I need to feed my Infinity Kappa 8's that are in great shape. Just got back into vinyl so I had my 1974 Thorens TD 160 tuned up. I think it sounds great. Is there any of you that live in the Milwaukee area and be willing to give me a listen to your system? Or any comments from you all.
Thanks Very Much !!!
Some more info, I have a new Grado Red cartridge and had to get a phono amp to run through a different input on the new NAD due to the lack of volume.

Hey Bob,(dorkwad) I can make the Friday date. From your post I'm not sure you want just to meet at the show plus go to your cave. I'm open for anything. I will be alone as the few of my friends come to my place when they need an ear full but that's as far as will go. Matter of fact they both got my equipment for free through the years. I think I explained above I just replaced my Adcom preamp with a NAD C 165BEE and really happy except for not enough volume from my Thorens TD160. I fixed that by using. A phono preamp and plugging it into one of the non phono inputs. My CD's even sounded so much better than my 25 year old Technics so I thought a new CD player would be better so I ordered a new NAD c546BEE today. To qualfy my love for music I can admit having my new wife of 6 years catching me in the basement with headphones on and she can't understand why I have tears running down my face. No clue that great music moves my soul. If you're interested then let's stay in touch and we can exchange phone numbers during the week.
Thanks,
Guy

Hi Golden,

I live in the Milwaukee area. I have two AXPONA worthy systems I would be glad to show you (at least I think they are AXPONA worthy). Please send me a message if you still would like to hear some other systems. 

Thanks,
Dave
