YOUR AUDIO JOURNEY COMPLETION!

Got the bug back and rebuilding a system that I suppose will be respectable, I just ordered a PM 8006 from Marantz, featurind a top integrated phono preamp, along with a Marantz ND 8006 CD/Streamer/Files reader media player DAC. My speakers are a pair of KEF Q550, TT is a Technics SL1210 MkII (because I used to be a DJ in the 70’s/80’s and I developed some attachment for this gear) With an Ortofon blue, and Technics RS1500US R2R for the nostalgy.
Put the 1500 in my office with my old Scott 460A and a pair of Bose 301 Mk2 bookshelf monitors. Not Hi-Fi of exception probably but surely the best for me and my wallet, trying to keep things under relative control. It will take a bit of time before I digest the whole thing and start tweaking but I'm good for now... 

@technick thanks. It’s been tough. @magnetoserge you look like you got a nice set up. Just enjoy it. I ended up with a lot of expensive stuff because of my initial journey. I’ve sold and flipped a lot of gear through relationships to get great prices on stuff. My system is rather expensive to some but I put it up vs. systems 5 times the cost and it does it for me.  Im pretty confident in my abilities to put a system together and I’ve been blessed with a lot of knowledge from my older audio friends. Listening puts me in a happy place. It makes the worries of life go away. This hobby can financially drain you if you let it.  The challenge for me has always been to put together world class for a 1/4 of the price and I’m in a good place there won’t be any major changes outside the gear I have. There is a slight chance of getting a kronzilla sxi KR AUDIO which is the jumbo king size  of the amp I have now but outside of that I have a Melco server and a tubed Sony modwright es5400 and I will probably keep both around and call it a day! Enjoy everyone while you are still here!

My system has been stable since 2015- and I’m quite happy, with zero desire to change out anything. 

Hoping I am reaching the end section of the journey when my Burmester B100, arrive, I will be driving them with Ps Audio BHK 250, DSD dac and DMP transport with Aesthetix Calypso sig preamp, MG Audio design cables and a pair of MJ Acoustics Ref 1 mark4 subs....... fingers crossed !

My system has been stable since 5pm yesterday.

That is good for me......
