My main system resides in a dedicated room in the basement and is used for serious listening. The secondary system is in a common living/entertaining area on the main floor. I like it to be unobtrusive. It features original Sonus Faber Guarneri Homage speakers driven by a Sonos Connect amp and a small Rel sub. Source is Tidal streaming and files on a NAS drive. It sounds surprisingly good and looks pretty cool too.
Whats in your second system?
Just curious as to the people who like myself have many thousands "invested" in their main system with all the latest tweaks, cables etc and also have a second or even third system.
Did you assemble that with the same love and care and dedication and costly tweaks?
Or did you throw something together from bargain bins or indeed your old leftovers and then sat back and thought...Wow this sounds really good!
And if so did that get you thinking on the main system...lol.
My second system cost way less than the speaker cables on my main system but I am constantly shocked at just how nice it sounds for such a no frills setup.
Linn Classic all in one
Tannoy 2 ellipse small floorstanders
20 year old (at least) Jensen 50w 8 inch sub.
Monster Cable 12/2 speaker cable bare wire ends.
Home brewed power cord just cos I had it laying around.
The Linn just sits on top of a chest of drawers with the Tannoys flanking the chest either side and the lil sub sitting behind the chest.
And it sounds darn good tbh!
