Description

2025 added a VPI Prime X turntable with Soundsmith cartridge. Running a Pro-Ject Tube box DS2. Replaced an aging Samsung HDTV with an LG OLED HDTV and built a new stereo stand. The long wood Paduak stand and mini-stands are custom build by myself.

I switch between a Rogue tube integrated amp and a Musical Fidelity solid state amp. I can casually play CDs in a changer all day or switch to a dedicated CD transport and DAC. Also I have an audiophile streamer in the HiFi Rose.

Now switching between turntable (analog) or digital, either a Bifrost II DAC or Denafrips Pontus 12th anniversary DAC paired with a HiFi Rose RS 130 streamer. I also have 2 Sony CD changers for casual listening.

Nice system had Vandy 2 my self 
don't know why you have them on dollies but if you take them off fill the stands with dry sand you will tighten the bass and focus the top end
