“Bedroom systems” can be a bit of a conundrum.
What do Audiogon members really prefer to get up to in their bedrooms?. It’s a no brainer for me!
Anyone Else Running Two Systems?
Sorry if this topic has been covered, I did a search and only found a little bit.
I have two systems in my house. In the main one I have a Pink Faun Scion as the source, McIntosh MCD 12000 DAC/CD, McIntosh MA 12000 integrated Amp and KEF Reference 5 Meta Speakers. Tai Hang power enhancer. Plus it is a treated room. Cabling is expensive too. It sounds fantastic.
My second one is a bedroom system, way simpler and cheaper. Source is a Blue sound Node going into a Vincent SV 228 integrated amp. The speakers are Wharfedale Lintons. This system is not as good as my main one. It doesn’t have the expansive stage or weight/3Dness and detail of the main system, but even so it is a whole lot of fun, very very enjoyable in its own way. If this system was all I had, I could seriously be content and happy with it. By the way, I have had a lot of integrated amps go in out my systems over the years. I must say from my listening experience, the Vincent SV 228 is underrated and a pretty good value.
Anyone else have two systems with one being "better" but still taking some listening time to enjoy a second less expensive system?

@mylogic -- I cheated a bit on the "bedroom" thing. We have a sunroom with a wide opening into our bedroom. It has a nice couch so makes a great listening area well away from the main traffic area of the house. |
Yes, I would think most people have 2 systems: 1) family room needs to look clean: $4k stereo for TV and music My video https://youtu.be/T4bh29T2Pa8?is=DQX2vINuCFl4T-EL 2) any room other than the family room that the gear doesn’t have to hide from view: I have a spare bedroom for a mixed use $40k music/cinema with 150in screen with 3D (100 3D movies).
