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

lil 50W JBL sub, just tuned up enough to help out a lil but not know its there. morrow audio cables 

I have 4.

Main system, office, living room and bathroom.

Main is analog only. Office is digital only. Living room Tube CD player with 3 pair of hand me down speakers. And bathroom is a very cool Meridian F80 Ferrari designed Radio/CD. Office is a very high end tube DAC only 44.1 and nice Theta Compli transport. And Schitt Dac for computer source. But the main system is medium ultra high end with beautiful Woodsong Garrard 301, AGD amps, Atma-Sphere pre and Tetra 606s.

Had a mid-fi secondary, Rogue Sphynx, Totem Skys, vintage Onkyo Integra cp-1057 t/t. Sold amp and speakers and went all vintage as it wasn’t for critical listening. Turns out, sounds pretty good.
