Anybody up for their *Dream System* description ???

It's fun once in a while and can help us clarify our objectives.

Please observe three constraints:

  1. Stereo only, no HT or multichannel
  2. Useable in your current listening space
  3. NO budget restrictions

Actually I have two systems that go in slightly different directions ...

My "Elegant" System:

  • Local digital source: NAS storage to Windows PC with Foobar2000 music player
  • Vinyl system: NONE; I haven't listened to LPs in 12 years or longer
  • miniDSP SHD Studio streamer with Dirac Live room EQ and streaming via Volumio
  • McIntosh C2700 tube preamplifier
  • McIntosh MC312 solid state power amplifier
  • Wilson Audio SabrinaX
  • No subwoofer given the speaker selection
  • Blue Jeans cables.

    My "Techno-minimalist" System:

  • Local digital source as above
  • No vinyl playback
  • NAD M33 integrated streamer, DAC, amplifier with Dirac Live room EQ and streaming via BluOS
  • Revel Ultima Studio2 loudspeaker
  • No subwoofer given my speaker selection
  • Blue Jeans cables.
