Main system has phono stage, two streamers, DAC, CD transport, analog tuner, cassette deck, tube linestage pre, SS amp for towers, dual-firing 1,000 watt sub. Entry room has streamer, analog stereo tuner, tube integrated amp, Firefly DAC, monitor speakers, sub. Computer room just powered speakers with sub; TV has Schiit DAC with large powered speakers. So four systems in four rooms, depending on what counts as a system. Some days I might use all four.
2nd systems- who’s got one?
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
