3 systems. A Fi Audio of NY-based one in the family room; a Kondo-based one, and a Concert Fidelity-based one. They give me pleasure, and I have an understanding (read: great) wife of almost 28 years. I keep the Fi Audio and Kondo equipment for many reasons, one of which they represent the crucial efforts of the designers that brought them to life. I keep the CF equipment because of the performance excellence (to my ears). Most components were purchased at good pre-loved or demo prices, so, substantial dollars invested but not totally whacked-out - all things considered.
Second audio system in your house?
Hi, just curious how many of you have a second audio system in your house, and, actually use it? I've recently bought some new components and had planned on selling my old amp, but I'm still attached to it, and with a small investment, say $1000, I could get some bookshelf speakers and a CD player. On the fence about the whole idea. There's a whole lot of other things to do with $1000 mind you, so I'm not sure if it's the most sensible thing to get into. I won't even ask the wife what her opinion is, as I already know it.
