I rejoined the audio/stereo universe with gusto in 2017, and it hasn't stopped. Back then I had 1 vinyl LP which was Mike Oldfield's Airborne. Now I have well over 500 LPs and about 30 Reel to Reel tapes and even more cassette tapes that I never tossed.
My system is more than I ever imagined it would be including a pair of 650 watt SimAudio 400M Solid State mono block amplifiers, a pair of Decware 6 watt Tube Mono blocks for when I am feeling like some tube goodness, a matching SimAudio Pre-Amp, a couple of Reel to Reel decks, a Marantz 3 head, 2 speed Cassette Deck a Roon Streamer and separate PS Audio DAC, a super crazy German Turntable and PS Audio phono pre-amp, and some crazy sexy Sonus Faber Il Cremonese, Italian speakers. It sounds so good, I will never want for something "better".
Ugh, we desperately need new window treatments. And don't mind the messy listening space.
Very nice!
I remember when you were just getting in to audio, and predicted that you would end up with a fantastic system. Looks like you have!
Did you assemble the system all at once or were there steps along the way?

@ShiroKuro, I have two quilts my grandmother made. They're too fragile to use now, but they meant a lot to my mother, because her mother died when she was two, and the quilts are almost the only memento of her that Mama had.
It's really extraordinary to hold something made by someone who's been gone so long and think of them cutting the fabric, stitching it together, and doing all the creative work it takes to complete a big project.

I feel the same way working with my father’s tools.
