This is the second full system I've set up for myself. I had to sell everything, but I've built up enough cash to start again. It's a budget system, but I'm doing my best to find higher quality used gear.
My main concerns for now are replacements for the Dynaco ST-70 and the Advents. I've enjoyed the Adcom 5802 (designed by Nelson Pass) and Martin Logan Aerius i's in the past, but I'd like to venture into something new. What do you think would pair well with the ARC LS-2?
Mint Condition ST-70 (Original boards but upgraded parts)
Advent Advent 1
Really old but still sound pretty good.
Denon 2200
I had a 3910 but it's having issues. I've switched to the 2200. It still sounds pretty good. I listen to more vinyl than CDs anyway.
Signal Cable Silver Resolution Reference
3 sets (2 2' and 1 3')
Custom made cable N/A
Home made cable very similar to Kimber 8VS.
Musical Fidelity X-LP
This is a stop-gap Phono stage for me, but it works for now (already outclasses the old Technics turntable)
Project Audio 2 Xperience Classic
Olive finish on a custom isolation platform (first Audiogon purchase)
Sumiko Bluepoint No. 2
Purchased along with the Pro-Ject TT. Sounds great
Sumo Andromeda mkII
I got this for a steal off of eBay. It sounds great at the right volume levels. It's a little flat at low volumes and can easily overpower the room when pushed too much. When it's loud - but not
Decware ERR
Extended Range Radial speaker from Decware. They certainly make for a different sound. Excellent for laid back acoustic jazz, vocal, and classical recordings.
My current speakers are the Martin Logan Ethos but I'm tempted by the Decware HR-1s, similar to your ERRs. Have you heard the Martin Logans? What would you say the differences are?
