when you do the phones be sure to spring for a tube headphone amp. You needn't spend that much to get amazing soundActually I think it's going to happen before the second system! Any recommendations tostadosunidos? (Like your funny name) I was looking at some tube headphone amps just yesterday. One reviewer said don't get tube as one will tire of the warm sound, but I'll take that with a grain of salt. I did see a super cool mod where someone turned an Emotiva x-100 amp into a headphone amp, cool! Not tubes though.
Second audio system in your house?
Hi, just curious how many of you have a second audio system in your house, and, actually use it? I've recently bought some new components and had planned on selling my old amp, but I'm still attached to it, and with a small investment, say $1000, I could get some bookshelf speakers and a CD player. On the fence about the whole idea. There's a whole lot of other things to do with $1000 mind you, so I'm not sure if it's the most sensible thing to get into. I won't even ask the wife what her opinion is, as I already know it.
