HiFi kit - How do YOU listen?

#1 Post by Effen Vida »

After reading in the main threads how many of us differ on what we think a well-produced album should sound like (clarity, depth, soundstage etc), I began wondering what kit we all listen on.

My stuff is nice-ish, sorely ageing, mid-range kit.

Monitor Audio GS20 speakers (with matching surrounds)
Arcam AVR450 amp ( I love movies as much as I love music so tried get something that was decent at both).
Arcam irDAC.
Sony PSHX500 Turntable
Rega Fono Mini A2D PreAmp.
Bowers & Wilkins P9 Headphones.
Sony 4K Blu-ray player for CD listening.
Apple TV with hi-res Tidal for everything else.

Your turn!!
