Old school analog system

Does anyone care to discuss there old school analog system? What it is and what you like about it? Start with mine. This is my second system   
Onkyo A8087 Integrated amp with Onkyo T 4087 tuner ,TA2058 cassette deck, Phillips 777 turntable and KEF 104 AB. It sounds great and is a fun system. That I have had fora looooong time. Still makes me happy. Not as detailed as my main system but I still enjoy it.

Do you mean a cartridge for your Sota ?
Dynavector 23R Ruby is great, my version was with Micro Ridge stylus. 
I never tried Decca cartridges, they are not for every tonearm!

@tomic601 for DV 23R you don't need a heavy tonearm, this is not a low compliance cartridge, the best for the money is Victor UA-7045 if we're discussing vintage tonearms. Fidelity-Research FR-64fx. Technics EPA-100. Or maybe those Dynavector tonearms. I have tested my DV23RS MR with Technics tonearms with great result.
