System Pics 2017

Posted by: hungryhalibut on 17 December 2016

Welcome to System Pics 2017. To get us started here is a picture of my setup: other than longer legs on the rack and some new wires, it's just the same as last year.

Are you sitting next to Kermit the frog?

New house = new room. Same gear except NDX added to Uniti2. SN2 to follow soon hopefully.

I do love the DPS. Such a clean, simple design. So much nicer than the some of those abominations that look more like a North Sea gas platform than a record player. 

Enjoy

Lucky you Tom. I love those Bauer TTs. They sound fantastic and they are so, so pretty. If I didn't have an LP12, the dps3 would be definitely the turntable I would go for.

^^ Some lovely kit in this thread

Eventually managed to get my gear off the floor in the 'new' room, courtesy of the 'anti-stand'. All is good

Those Gales are lovely. Such a nice design.

I like their stands too, not to mention the Olive/CB mix and Quad on.. Ikea classics. A true classic! Thanks Mr. Tibbs.   :taré1:

Congrats on the DPS tom539. I've only heard one, the one used in dems by Kudos. It has an Aro and XXV and is a lovely sounding thing.

The simple looks are great too, although there's a lot of sophisication hidden inside that plinth.

Just changed the  NAC102 for a NAC82 and added an XPS to the CDX.  Great music and I don't need the radiator on any more.

I'd really like to display my upgrades here, but out of six boxes, 5 are NAIM and one is a "PSU that dare not speak it's name" and I wouldn't want to risk the Wrath Of Richard...

There was no problem when I posted pictures. We're just not allowed to discuss the items in question.

Thanks for the comments and likes  

Nearly forgot this. It's on an Audiotech wall shelf near the hot seat.

Did you, by chance, play bass on Roxy Music's Flesh and Blood?

OK, so whilst the 500s are away at base being fettled, thought I'd set up something to listen to. Amazingly it's...not as good as my DBLs. But very passable.

Those DBLs look perfect in that room.

Goodness me, those DBLs look substantial.  Bet the bottom end is something to experience as well as hear.

What's driving them? All I see is a Muso on the top rack of the fraim and some kind of mystery box on the bottom rack.
