A secondary system to enjoy.

It’s a great idea.

Yes second systems are a great place to experiment with new things without disturbing the equilibrium of one’s main setup unless necessary.

If you have the money and room.......

Been using a Sharp SD-EX111 (all-in-one CD player/AM-FM tuner/integrated amplifier) paired with Polk RT-15i speakers, since 2004, as a 2ND system.

The Sharp ($500 retail) was $75 on closeout (purchased 5 of them) and the RT-15i's were $13.50 @ a local thrift.

Difficult to beat sound/convenience wise for the price of <$100.

I'm on the 2ND Sharp (One still stored NIB and gave Two of them away as gifts).

Well I used to have the money....
Up to a couple of days ago that is.

My secondary system is composed entirely of hand-me-downs from the primary.  That way you get more use out of a component you've acquired, and slow down the merry-go-around of acquisition.
