How many people do you think have the same DAC, amplifier, and speakers


I was thinking that the majority of people have unique systems. 

So you think statistically that maybe only a couple of percent of people have the same source, amplifier, and speakers?

 

I guess that's what fuels the 'mine is bigger than yours' discussions..

Custom built Alternative Audio amplifiers not many of them around since Dave H passed away.  I did have to replace the inexpensive RCA jacks with better ones now I am happy with them.  Musical fidelity m1dac, Zu audio speakers.

I use a Bryston 4b SST2 to drive my Maggie 1.7i.  I know Bryston amplification is a popular choice among Maggie owners.  My preamp is an upgraded BAT VK30-SE and my main source is a VPI TNT4 with TNT5 bearing and SOTA Total Eclipse motor system, with ET2.5 Tonearm and a Lyra Delos cartridge.  Not sure how many people have something like those.

I don’t know, but my local audio group meets this weekend and our host has my DAC, a PS Audio Directstream. I’m really eager to hear how the rest of the (much more expensive) system plays it.

This is a great question. I’m sure it’s possible someone else has a Denafrits Hermes to a Pontus ii to an Atoll IN300. But I’m pretty confident she/he doesn’t have a pair of completely refurbished (by Richard So) ADS L1590ii. These speakers are old, but i tell myself ‘I have some brand new 1980s technology.’ 😂
