So much has happened in audio in my lifetime. We now have phones that can carry a larger music library than most people possess. Surely no one could possibly be happy with a system composed of the following components, all in production (albeit with some mods) since at least 1977 (so coming around on 40 years). Front end: Linn LP12 turntable, SME M2-9-R tonearm, Denon DL-103 cartridge; Amplification: Luxman L-505ux integrated amplifier; Speakers: Vandersteen 2CE signature. Surely this collection of components dating back to the "glory days" of high fi (late sixties to mid eighties, imo) couldn't possibly satisfy anyone anymore, could it? |
