Lockdown Office System

[A400]

Like many places we're currently on lockdown restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I'm one of the lucky ones who can do most of my work from home, and I have a pretty good space to use an an office. The photo is taken from a sofa which is a nice space to relax and listen to music.

Currently the system is:
JR-149 speakers - possibly overkill for this setting but they sound really good in near field
Lambert SP235 speakers - likely to change soon as they're running borrowed tweeters until I fix the originals
Technics SU-V60 amplifier
Sony CDP-CX355 300 CD player - it has about 25 inside until I can be bothered putting more in
AMC T7 tuner
Sony CDP-C365 5 disc CD player
TEAC LS-L800 subwoofer

I'm planning a few improvements as time permits, including twin Sony subs, replacing the printer with a turntable and figuring out a convenient way to run the desktop PC instead of my work laptop. That would allow me to serve up FLACs via a DAC which is what I usually do here, as well as use my portrait monitor.

Anyone else have a lockdown rig running to keep them happy?

I found some time over the last couple of weeks to make some planned changes:
Sony SA-W500 x 2 - there is now enough bass I have these dialed in pretty low and added some stuffing as they seemed a bit boomy stock
Thorens TD 318 - sounds miles better than the printer
Pioneer F447L tuner has replaced the AMC, because the transformer doesn't hum its own tune like the AMC did
KEF Kit 1 - I've wanted to listen to these more, so this was a chance. Normally non-mirrored speakers drive my OCD nuts, but it works in my favor here. I wondered if they would sound like a big version of the JR149 given the components, but they're much more sensitive and sound huge in comparison, and a bit less refined perhaps. Anyway, today was refoam day with six woofers done. Included in this was a pair of JPW P1 which have been waiting in the wings for a while and now reside where the Kits were. They're a bit smaller which is handy
