Nothing new in the audio world for me, but it’s been a while since I posted it

The newest thing in my audio world is a new house. This one is mud brick and timber with a cathedral ceiling. And the music hasn’t sounded this good for a while...

Amp is an Aspen Naksa 100; Krix Lyrix loudspeakers and Cambridge Audio CD source.

Wow, you have a nice setup. What kind of tube preamp is that?

Thanks! It’s a Dynaco ST-70, bi-amping with that and the big Sansui

Nice amp.

Very nice, I have my normal HT setup, which consists of Aperion Audio Intimus 6 series front, center, rear; a klipsch Sw-112 sub, Pioneer Elite VSX-52 receiver, and a Denon DP300F turntable.

For vintage, I have a Pilot 225 integrated amp:

A Lafayette LR-3030, that belonged to my FIL:

A mid-1950s Magnavox console stereo that was my wife’s grandmothers first purchase after getting her first job (I saved it when she went to live in an assisted living center):

And my most recent acquisition, a Pioneer SX-680 I found on a neighbor’s curb while walking my dog:

I’ve cleaned out the Pilot and it sounds great, but haven’t gotten around to the Pioneer or Lafayette. Not sure what to do with the Magnavox. I’d love to either restore it or resto-mod it, but its an old school tube system, and frankly I don’t know where to begin. That and it weighs a ton.
