As of today:

SME 20/3
SME V
Benz Micro Ace SL (love this cart)
Aurorasound Vida phono
Rega Saturn (rarely used)
Super Nait 2
Harbeth Compact 7-ES3s
Stax 323/303

I have a lot of stuff sitting about that I'm going to lend to a friend, or sell, or make a second system from - Nait 2 (impulse buy, I just like having one around), Nait XS, Sony CDP715E, Quad 306, Nak DR8, at least three spare phono stages, etc.

No racks. I hate racks. SME sits on an old skool Sound Org table.

For sheer insight this is probably the best system I've owned. Aside from the superb analogue front end, the SN2 and C7s have some real synergy going on.
 
I think I'm at the journey's end now!
Linn Sondek LP12/Linn walnut corner braced plinth/Circus/kore/Lingo 1/silver wired Ittock LVII/Krystal cartridge.
Rega Elex-r/Rega duet cable/Rega RX3
Plus Rega Apollo-r & vintage A & R T21 tuner
I may get a used Rega DAC in the future, but then please don't let me spend any more money, except on vinyl!
