This is my system.
Front end is LP12 modified with Cetech sub-chassis, Armageddon, ARO arm and either a ZYX 4D or Lyra Skala cartridges. Phonocube. ML 39 Cd player. Gaincard with 50W Humpty, interconnect is OTA. Speakers are Wilson Watts and Puppyfs 3/2. These are hooked up with pure silver solid core cables. With these there is more air around the voices and instruments than using OTA or DNM copper.
Turntable has had its bottom plate removed and sits on Maple plinth, then Daruma 3 isolators which sit on a 6lb piece of polished granite.
Daruma isolators also under the Cd player and the Watts, which sit on polished granite
slabfs. I find the Daruma far superior to the supplied spikes.
Tried putting the Gaincard on a thin granite sheet with Darumafs under it, but this brought no improvement to the sound.
No problem driving the Watts as Gaincard volume need never be higher than 5.
Below you can see a pair of redundant ML 20.6fs there is also a Nagra PLP currently undergoing a long holiday.
The room is virtually a cube 14f x 13f x 10f so I have set the room up using an idea I got from the Decware site. In which the corners are utilised keep right speaker reflections on the right hand side and vice-versa.
