If you had to start all over again in this day and age


So, with the advent of different technology, sources and platforms these days, if you had to build your home stereo system all over again, what would you purchase to listen to music that brings you satisfaction?

How much of what you have would you keep, change or throw all out and start over again?

I started my in home audio journey back in mid 70s with basic Pioneer and Denon Electronics and BIC speakers; quickly moving up to other electronic ie. Harman/Kardon, Tandberg, Nakamichi and Thorns and speakers ie. Klipch, Mission and Vandersteen. By mid 80s I fell in love with the Quad ESL 63s and even though I experimented with a lot of other speakers over the years, the Quads was my main stay speakers for over 20 years - powering them with PSE, Bryston and Krell. Following my work and moving into a considerably smaller living space, I had to sacrifice my Quads and hopes for getting a pr. of Apogee Duetta Sigs. for something considerably smaller.
Now, back in a larger living space with a dedicated audio room, my journey has started over. Following my love for stats and ribbons, I had chance to pick up a pr. of the little Maggie 1.7s and fell in love with their clean open sound. My goal now is to move up to a larger set of Maggies or, If I get the budget a pr. of the Sound Lab 545s or 645s, with an up grade in my CDP and phono cartridge. With hundreds of LPs and CDs, I have no interest in streaming.....Jim
