An all vintage system
Got to thinking, if I could just will it into existence, how grand would it be to have a JBL Paragon, Thorens TD124/SME 3009/ADC, Marantz 7, Marantz 8B, Marantz 10B
Is there any set up you would will into existence?
@viridian EMT927 - very nice!! |
I’m almost all vintage, how many years old qualify _____ ? like cars, 25? 1958 Speaker Crossovers and Drivers (ElectroVoice x336, 15W; CDP-847; T350) 1963 McIntosh Tube Tuner/Preamp 1977 JVC TT81 Turntable 1981 JVC Tonearm UA-7082 1983 Jelco SA-250 Tonearm 1984 Teac X-2000R Reel to Reel Tape Deck 1986 Acos Lustre GST-801 Tonearm the newer stuff (all have remote control) 1995 Chase RLC-1 Remote Line Controller (only 21 yrs old) 2006 Cayin A88T Integrated Amp (mark I to get 16 ohm taps) (only 20 yrs old) 2008 Sony xa5400-es SACD Player (only 18 yrs old) /////////////////// IF my floors were not so springy, I would have kept my Thorens TD-124 TT and SME 3009-II Tonearm, probably would not have thought to have multiple tonearms, JVC’s Plinths PL-2 and PL-3 encourage that idea.

Commodore 64 server for sure ! as for the vintage analog… sOTA sapphire > Souther arm > Dynavector Ruby > Cotter > > misc amplification from CJ or Modjeski or … Levinson / Hartley / Sequerra HQD w stacked quad ESL in ebony stands.. wire by Fulton or Audioquest…. substitute in Beveridge electrostatic depending on what mid century room I can conjure up… |

It was unplanned.....I didn’t foresee my current system when I started in 1982, but my amps were born in 1961 and 1964 respectively, and the preamp and speakers were in new in the late 80s. I’ve been working on the same system for so long, all the basics are vintage! I do keep it as updated as I can, and it keeps sounding better to me and makes me happy, so I just keep going with it. |
