I have quite a few set-up in my listening room, but the one that has completely captivated me and continues to amaze is the following:
Carver 6250 Receiver
Technics SL-6 w/Grado Black cartridge
Sony CDP CX-235
Stacked Rectilinear III speakers (Hi-Boys on top of Low-Boys).....this arrangement makes my other speakers (JBL Apollos, Klipsch Forte's, AR3a's, KLH 5's, and others) sound like toys. :D
 
FAMILY ROOM (main 2 channel):
Arcam CD73 (Bought new 1 month ago)
Dayton-Wright SPS preamp (Bought new 25+ years ago) - see photos below
NAD C270 Power Amp (Bought used 2 weeks ago)
EPOS M5 speakers (Bought new 2 weeks ago)

HT Setup
Denon 3803 Receiver (Bought new 2 1/2 years ago)
Denon 910 DVD player (Bought new 2 1/2 years ago)
Mirage OM-12 Mains (Bought new 6-7 years ago)
Mirage Centre and Surrounds (Bought new 6-7 years ago)
M&K Sub (Bought new 6-7 years ago)
Toshiba TLP-ET1 projector (Bought new 2 1/2 years ago)

Bonus System (installed tonight)
Toshiba SD-3109 DVD player (had for a while)
JVC R-X500 receiver (Daughter's - Pretty old)
Dual 721 Turntable (Pretty old)
Energy C-3 speakers (Bought new 2 months ago)

I got the bonus system because my daughter moved out a few days ago and left a wall unit so now I have room for a turntable. The JVC receiver has been in the basement for a few years along with the Toshiba DVD player. I was surprised to discover that the DVD player plays HDCDs. So I slap one on and this setup sounds surprisingly sweet :banana:
Here are pictures of the bonus gear and my Dayton-Wright preamp from the main system;

Now I'm using vintage gear to.
