A secondary system to enjoy.


I think a secondary system to enjoy and explore with an open mind andlower expectations can be more rewarding than one thinks in our hobby....and educational at the same time.

Your thoughts?

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).

If you have the money and room......
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.
I have 3 secondary systems, 4 if you count my Bluesound Pulse speakers.  I have one in my home office, one in my computer room, and one in my bedroom.  The Bluesound speakers are more of a portable self-contained system.
