Here's the living room system. Teac H500i integrated amp, Technics SL-7 TT with an Audio Technica cart, cheap DVD player also used as a CD player, Tannoy Chatsworths. This is a non-audiophool system that my wife and 5 year old use too. I bought the little Technics deck when my daughter was born so I would have something to play vinyl on that was discreet enough that little fingers wouldn't be able to damage it. Now she's old enough to play records on it herself, which is as it should be. This is a great sounding system, because Tannoys just rock. I miss my big Lancasters, especially in this huge room, but the Chatsworths are still pretty awesome. One day I'll have some Westminsters in this room, it's just a matter of time and money.
Some of the records (we've only recently moved in, and not everything is unpacked and sorted yet).
In my office/darkroom I can indulge less user-friendly hifi tendencies. Rotel RP-3000/Ortofon SPU #1E, and the 47 Labs setup I've been running now for 13 years or so - Shigaraki CD transport and DAC, Gaincard, Phonocube (absolutely brilliant with the SPU, the best vinyl sound I have ever had at home). Tuner is a Leak Stereofetic, a lovely thing which gets a good signal from a bit of string. Sometimes I swap the amps for a Quad 34/306 setup, or a Leak Stereo 30 Plus, but the 47 Labs is my first love, it makes me smile every time I use it. I wouldn't mind getting hold of another Leak Stereo 20 one day though, I sold my last one a few years back and regret it, even though I made a lot of money on it.
Speakers are my homemade Ted Jordan VTLs, commercially sold as the Konus Essence. Again, I've been using these for 13 years. They're perfect for this setup.
Here's the thread about building them:
