How prevalent are 2nd systems? My sense is that a fair number of folks have a 2nd system. I put together a very nice bedroom system- NAD 316 bee V2, Node (n130) and Wharfedale Diamond 12.2 on Monoprice stands. Cabling is DH labs (IC), Supra (speaker) and Audioquest (pc on Node). Frankly, I’d have been thrilled as a teen to have a system that sounds as good as my bedroom system
I do have a 2nd system in my study. It is built around a Luxman L507uX integrated amplifier, Dynaudio Contour 20 bookshelf speakers, a Metronome CD player, a Chord Qutest DAC, a Zen Mini streamer and LPSU. This is a contrast to my main system which is tube based. I also have a basic 3rd system in in study for the desktop, which is built around a set of LEF LSX speakers and a KEF subwoofer which connect to my PC via Bluetooth. Am looking to change my 3rd system soon too (as soon as the devil and angel on my right and left shoulders finish their discourse) 😅
2nd, 3rd...got em. i switch my stuff around a lot cuz i dont plan to keep it all but im not sure what i want to hang on to yet. i like it all, but i dont need it all.
second system is conrad johnson PV8, rega planar 3 w/ sumiko blue point #3 HOMC, focusrite scarlett 2i2, soundtech power amp, adcom GFA-535 amp, and a pair of halford loudspeakers margaritas.
Main is analog only. Office is digital only. Living room Tube CD player with 3 pair of hand me down speakers. And bathroom is a very cool Meridian F80 Ferrari designed Radio/CD. Office is a very high end tube DAC only 44.1 and nice Theta Compli transport. And Schitt Dac for computer source. But the main system is medium ultra high end with beautiful Woodsong Garrard 301, AGD amps, Atma-Sphere pre and Tetra 606s.
