Two systems? Why?

I mentioned on another thread that I have two completely different systems, one for HT and one for music. I wonder how many of y'all have taken that approach. Anyone care to comment on your systems and how they differ?

I'll start off.
My HT system: Paradigm Reference Studio 100 v2 mains, Reference CC, Reference ADP surrounds, and Servo 15 sub; Parasound 2500u pre/pro; Parasound 2205AT amp; Toshiba SD5700 DVD; Sony CX90ES CD jukebox; Monster cables.

My music system: JM Lab Mezzo Utopia speakers; Belles 350A amp; Rega Jupiter 2000 CD; various cables. No vinyl and no tubes (gasp).

Persons familiar with this gear will see clearly that I am seeking two quite different goals with these systems.

Others take a moment to share?

I do not have an HT system as I don't have to much interest in that direction. But I agree that they are totally different in orientation and design goals. Listening to music is quite different than being enveloped with a movie sound track. You have done a nice job on the music side even though I have a penchant for vinyl and tubes. I think it's to bad that so many and so much of the industry are moving in one direction down the HT path. Although sometimes I think I just want something to fuss over.

Sincerely, I remain
