A superb little DAC connected via optical Toslink to my PC. One of the best upgrades I ever made to my system. And an excellent headphone amp, to boot!
Shure V-15 type III
A classic cartridge. Sounds lovely with the Super Track stylus.
Technics SL-1300
The full-auto sibling to the original SL-1200. Great turntable.
Cambridge Soundworks Ensemble subwoofers
Slim, sealed passive subwoofers to add a more substantial bottom end to the Klipsch monitors. They'll do, for now.
SMSL SA-50
Amp for passive subs
Klipsch KG-1.5
I bought these as a package deal for a nice Pioneer AVR, I at first didn't think much of them, but the seller told me he was particularly sad to see them go. Now I can hear why. They have a nice, non-fatiguing sound, but they can crank if you ask them to, and they make for surprisingly good near-field monitors.
NAD 7240PE
The core of the system, powering the Klipsch monitors. Great sounding mid-80s receiver with a clean, detailed sound, a good MM phono section and an excellent tuner.
Bel Canto Design S-300iD
Marvelous little 150wpc integrated amp with onboard Toslink DAC and HT-bypass
Lots of nice gear you have there. I've eyed Bel Canto products for many years, but it's more of a pipe dream than reality for me. But the little SMSL chip amps are more doable for me. What are your thoughts of it?
On a vintage note. I notice your vintage NAD. I have lately been interested in NAD PE series to replace my vintage Pioneer which you commented on in my system. Since you have both how would you compare the NAD to the Pioneer?
