    • PS Audio DigitalLink III
    Just bought this one, I'm enjoying it immensely so far!
    • Arcam Diva A80
    A very nice sounding little amp, enjoying it so far.
    • Rega Planar 3
    A solid little table, my entry into the vinyl arena.
    • B&W 686 bookshelves
    Small monitors, but very nice sounding for the size.
    • Audioquest King Cobra
    Smooth sounding cables, they are great for the money.
    • Nordost Superflatline
    Nice sounding for the money.
    • NAD PP-2
    Good beginner phono stage, will be upgrading in the future.
    • Denon DL-103
    Sounds great, but mismatched for my Grace 707 tonearm. Will be trading for something of a higher compliance.
    • Grace 707
    Nice little arm, it works for now.
    • Apple TV
    I am running audio from my Apple TV to the DAC. It sounds pretty good.

The pic for system 2 is really nice and shows a lot of care in setup and choosing the gear. You are clearly passionate about it.
The purist in me wouldn't put a phono preamp on top of a computer (AppleTV), but it does look nice and tidy there. BTW, I love my AppleTV controlled with the remote app.
