Hello people First post.
I own 2 modest audio/video setups, one for music, one for home theater. I'm an avid music lover. I still purchase vinyl when I find it, yet, I'm a modern man, and a big user of digital technology and networked storage. All my music is owned on hard copy, Vinyl and CDs (killed my tapes and tape deck a few years back, good riddance.). All my CDs (400+) are digitized as-is, with all tracks kept in their untouched, native WAV format on a local SMB network. Most of my media playback is done using a WD TV Live media Hub 1TB
Music-wise, Classical and contemporary instrumental music makes up the bulk of my music listening, with smooth Jazz and some old pop-rock completing the picture.
Movie-wise, I'm a Sci-Fi enthusiast, and I love to destroy my neighbor's peace and quiet with a good movie or two on Saturday afternoons. I was an early adopter and lover of the DTS format, and I'm often blown away by the work of movie sound engineers. We have come a long way since the heyday monaural sound tracks laden with unrealistic things like tires screeching on dirt roads and "whizzing" bullets.
My Stereo setup:
* Harman Kardon HK3490
* 2 X JBL Studio 38II
* 2 X Reference Audio R50S
- Pioneer Rondo 2000 Turntable
- LG LGD435 DVD player.
My Home Theater:
* Harman Kardon AVR3600
* 4 X JBL Northridge E-60
* Reference Audio R550C
* 8" JBL Northridge SUB
- Sony BDP S5100
- Samsung BD-P1600
- WD TV Live media Hub 1TB #1
- Digital Cable & PVR box
- (Via SMB network) WD TV Live media Hub 1TB #2
- (Via Toslink) Creative SB X-Fi 5.1 USB
It's not much, but it's mine.
