This 2nd system is located in a former stable (ceiling vaults), basically a storage-room whose half of it now serves as a man cave. Very good acoustics, no neighbors.
The system sounds surprisingly natural and realistic at the same time. No artificial 'hifi' sound.

Very fine-sounding top-loading CD player, with high frequency upsamling.
Marantz PM16
2nd hand vintage amplifier. Could be replaced soon. Though I am not a big fan of the brand, this one is surprisingly fine. But the Harbeth M30.2 Anniversary deserve better (therefore the NuPrime).
