Simple and budget-minded system in my lower den.

The room where I relax, drink whiskey and contemplate life or something to that effect.

I do swap the big chair around to really listen (a concession I made voluntarily to the keeper of the sexing).

Nothing flashy, as that's just for the garage. Just a simple, clean system to bring me a little peace.

I had previously used, as seen in one of the photos, Magnepan MG1.5QRs, which were quite beautiful sounding, but after I left my big Denon POA4400 mono amps behind to jump to tubes, their extremely low efficiency left a bit lost, and the direct, clear sound of the JBL's was far too enticing to go back.

This 2-channel system has gone through a dozen iterations, just like all of us fools, and will continue to change, undoubtedly, but, this setup has lasted the longest so far, and I don't feel any overwhelming desire to swap it at the moment.

ps- as people may ask, I'm using 4x Sovtek KT88's, 4x Tung Sol 6SN7's and 2x Mullard 12AX7's
