What do you got? Post your sound system! Or what you used to have! Or what you want!

A pair of desktop speakers I got from Goodwill a few years ago for $7. They’re great.

Pro-Ject Debut Carbon and tube preamp, Yamaha something or other receiver, a pair of Hartley HiFi speakers.

I’ve got tinnitus and can’t hear anything above 15 kHz, so a cheapo Pioneer 5.1 kit from Walmart works for me.

The small system is a Sansui 210, and a pair of Realistic Optimus 800Cs.

The big system is a Sansui 9090DB and Dynaco ST-70 bi-amping a pair of Infinity Kappa 7.1 Series 1s, turntable is a Sansui SR-929 and preamp is a Nikko Beta 50II. The whole setup is sitting on a Marconi console stereo that used to work, but I need to fix. It has 6 speakers, the woofers are 15" across if I remember correctly.

Lit up with the cover on the Dynaco

The 45lb turntable

The Niva has the factory stereo system: 1.7L of fury and the aerodynamics of a can of spam.

Just a Sony amp and some Bose 301s that I’ve had forever. The real prize is my Magnavox console stereo. It has both AM and FM as well as a turntable. To top it off it’s quadraphonic! That one will soon be coming home after being stored at my parents’ house.

Onkyo 7.1 receiver, JBL floor speakers, JBL center and surround speakers.

Also have a Onkyo CD changer, dock for iPod.

I like components.

3.1 system, MTM arrangement Focal Utopia drivers with Hiquphon tweeters with an SVS sub, Pioneer Elite Receiver VSX something or other (model escapes me) Harmon Kardon TT for the vinyl. 2.1 when music plays.

I have Lexus Premium Sound System. Works pretty good after 313,000 miles and 20 years.

I don’t consider myself much of an audiophile, but I needed to find something with AUX input. So I found this Pioneer DEH-4400 at the local Walmart a few years ago, and I like it a lot.

Not only do I have more options to play tunes from, but I really like that the head unit is flat black, not glossy, so it matches my interior well. And the display color is totally adjustable. If I get the RGB channels just right, it even matches my clock and gauge illumination!

I’m running Martin Logan Motion 10 towers with a Martin Logan Dynamo 500 sub powered by an Onkyo TX-8050 stereo receiver. Have an Oppo DV980H(?) for CDs. Quite like this system and has served me well for several years. Would love some GoldenEar towers or even some Aperion Verus II towers.

Currently I have a Yamaha 5.1 surround receiver, Paradigm Mini-monitors, an M&K 12" sub, Paradigm CC-100 center, and Warfedale dipole surrounds. I feed it with the PS3, PS4, TV, and a Yamaha 5-disc DVD-A/SACD/DVD changer.

I used to have a SG JoLida SJ-101 tube amp, fed by a Marantz 2245 receiver, an Audio Alchemy DacInTheBox, and a Philips GA222 Electronic Turntable (I still have it, but it’s not hooked up right now, it will be in the new house! (i forget what it has for a cartridge on it, it might be an AudioTechnica AT440, or maybe an older Shure... actually it could be an AKG (P7?)...) and a Sony 337ESD drive. Oh, and a Marantz SD-1010 cassette deck. All those sounds came out of a pair of Magnepan MG-IIc planer magnetic speakers that I completely rebuilt by hand. New voice coil wire, upgraded crossovers and interconnects, I even stiffened the frames...

When I lost my job and ended up living in my car in 2008 I sold all of that stuff for food, except for the Philips 222, since those are practically mythical in their rarity.

Does a shitty Chinese BT speaker count? That’s what I use around the house.

We have a Polk Audio sound bar with wired sub for one TV. My gaming TV has a Sony bookshelf stereo using the audio cable input from the TV headphone output jack and a double-male cable to connect them.

My GTI has the upgraded Fender branded audio system.

But I do at least rip CDs at 320kbps, so I’m not hopeless.

Yamaha R-300 receiver, Magnavox CD-2000 single disc CD player, Pioneer PL-200 direct drive turntable, currently hooked up to some KLH bookshelf speakers. I had a Kenwood cassette player, but gave that up several years ago...

That SG tube amp looks very similar to an ST-70

I’ve got a Sony STR-DG510 with 2 tower speakers, a center, and 2 satellites.

Bought them together with a TV 11 years ago after spending 3 months working in a supermarket in summer holiday and not getting the permission to get a third car. Worth it.

Nothing high end, but honestly I couldn’t hear a major difference. Also I mostly use it for movies and video games.
