Hello all! I have put together a very modest system at (I think) a great price. My goal was a good sound on a budget. I'm still trying to dial it in, as my room is an odd shape (plane a 45 degree corner on a rectangle), and I have concrete and carpet in the listening area.
Anyhow, pics when I get them ...
Receiver : MCS 3253 $100.00

Turntable: Technics SL-BD22D $20.00 Came with Shure 500 cart and generic stylus
-Cart and Stylus: NOS Shure 800E and needle (N104E) $50.00
CD Player: Panasonic DVD player $FREE-purposed
Cassette: Sony (TC-FX120) $24.00 for player and parts (belts and cassette to set speed)
Speakers: Boston Acoustics VR940 $6.00
Sub - Dayton SUB1000 $30.00
Total: $230 Sounds very focused and uncolored, but is missing something. I'll figure that out as I go along.
