Whats in your second system?


Just curious as to the people who like myself have many thousands "invested" in their main system with all the latest tweaks, cables etc and also have a second or even third system.

Did you assemble that with the same love and care and dedication and costly tweaks?

Or did you throw something together from bargain bins or indeed your old leftovers and then sat back and thought...Wow this sounds really good!

And if so did that get you thinking on the main system...lol.

My second system cost way less than the speaker cables on my main system but I am constantly shocked at just how nice it sounds for such a no frills setup.

Linn Classic all in one
Tannoy 2 ellipse small floorstanders
20 year old (at least) Jensen 50w 8 inch sub.
Monster Cable 12/2 speaker cable bare wire ends.
Home brewed power cord just cos I had it laying around.

The Linn just sits on top of a chest of drawers with the Tannoys flanking the chest either side and the lil sub sitting behind the chest.

And it sounds darn good tbh!

Thx!  
To be honest, I’ve not yet heard either system in final configuration as listed, as each was finalized just today from my local dealer on a good virus sale right before our state shuts down tonight for two weeks. 

So I’ll have to wait a few weeks to pick up the 7000n and 851n (pieces I ordered today from local dealer), but pretty excited to at least have something to look forward to in these crazy times. 
My second system is in my bedroom:
Spendor D1 mini monitors;
REL R-328 subwoofer;
Cambridge Audio Edge W power amp;
Cambridge Audio Azur 851n dac/streamer;
Audioquest Powerquest 3 power conditioner;
MIT Terminator 4 speaker cables and ICs;
Signal power cables and neutrik cable to REL.

My third system is at my work office:
Spendor SA1 mini monitors;
Sunfire SDS8 subwoofer;
Marantz pm7000n integrates amp/streamer;
W Audio power conditioner;
Signal speaker cables;
Pangea power cables and sub cable.
