Two systems for me - 04/13/04 11:11 AM
Two systems live at my house. From the comparison you can tell that I'm primarily an audio person.
TWO CHANNEL SYSTEM (14x22x12 dedicated room)
JMLab Mezzo Utopia speakers
Belles 350A amplifier
Parasound Halo P3 preamp
Parasound Halo T3 tuner
Oracle CD550 CD player/DAC
Connections by Kimber
Power conditioning by Monster
Roughly 3000 CDs
No green lights, magic stones, or tiny telephone poles to keep my cables off the floor...
HT SYSTEM (16x20x8 dedicated room)
36" Sony Wega XBR direct view (Need a bigger screen, honey? Sit closer.)
Paradigm Studio 100 v2 mains
Paradigm Studio CC-470 center channel
Paradigm Studio ADP-470 sides
Paradigm Studio 20 rears
VMPS Larger Subwoofer
Lexicon DC-1 pre/pro (soon to be replaced by Outlaw 950)

No coffee tables made from film reels, vintage exit signs, antique projectors, popcorn machines or posters.
