Another my passion, collecting vintage hi-fi, old tube radio, ecc

[Jonnybravo]

My current setup consists of 2 Jamo D365's, simply for nothing but loudness, they do need upgrading though as their old hat and I don't need anything like that in my room.

Pioneer A-88X Amplifier
Roland DJ-1000 Mixer
Technics SL-1210 Mk3's

I run my pc through this and Sony AV system so have no need for anymore equipment really, better to keep some room for some of the music collection !

I'm very happy to know that there are other forum members that love hi-fi

Most of this is pretty much 80'/90s gear
Deep breath! here we go...

Linn LP12 Rosewood/Kusma Stogi AT F-3
Nakamichi PA -5 (beast weighs 35lb)
Nva Pre- amp with its own seperate power supply
Acoustic Energy AE1'S - awesome speakers.
Micromega T drive CD with Orelle DAC.
Sony TCFX5 Cassette Deck

My second system comprises of ;
Castle Chesters speakers
Aura VA - 50
SONY CD
Rogers tuner
Also a large pile of broken/damaged cartridges!

Nice!

I was listening to an LP12 with Linn Klimax Kontrol and Klimax 320A speakers a few months back at the hifi dealer. Absolutely out of this world.

My setup (more film than music):

Linn Majik DS dynamik
Linn AV-5103
Linn AV-5125 dynamik x2
Linn AV-5140 tri-amped active
Linn AV-5120 bi-amped active
Linn AV-5140 (rear)
Linn AV-5150

Always fancied a set of Sonus Faber speakers.
They are beautifully made and would keep the wife happy.
Anyone had any experience with them?

Visually stunning! If it sounds as good as it looks...
Ivor Tiefunbrun was very wise to expand into the A/V market.

[Audi-Porsche Avant RS2]

Very nice! What kind of music do you like? I like disco 70-80-90, one of my favourite song is Mr. Vain of Culture Beat that is of the year 1993 like my S2

[Jonnybravo]

I do know very well the company (based in my area) and the quality of the products it's top!

I suggest you to have a look at this other company in the same area of Italy:

http://www.laboratorioaudio.it/

The main difference from Sonus Faber it's that Laboratorio Audio builds their drivers in the premises.... the Jolie model it's something unique (probably the best speaker I ever listen to) Sonus faber as you probably know uses Dynaudio drivers
I can ask where you can have a look and listen to them in England if you want.

I do also love Hi-Fi:

My system to be upgrade in the new house:

Amplifier Pioneer VSX 909 RDS
DVD player Pioneer DV 646A
cd player it's an hold Denon can't remember the model...
main speakers Acoustat Spectra 11
center surround and subw from Laboratorio Audio Vela model

In the new house I built myself a 125 inches screen that raises from the floor
the home theater will be a 7.1 on a 55 sqm room.
All speakers then will be from Laboratorio Audio.
I will try tu put my hands on a SIM2..... or if I can't afford it I'll go for an InFocus.

The Acoustats will then be placed in a dedicated living room (smaller) with my youth system.... kept in a dry and clean storage since...... ages!

Sansui AU 5900
Denon DP 1700 shure V15 III and Stanton 681 AAA

Thanks veneto.
Sounds like a good system you are putting together.
I will be using B&W + REL subwoofer.
Still like the style of Sonus Faber with the solid wood construction.

[Audi-Porsche Avant RS2]

Here you can see some pictures and specs of Pioneer HPM 150 loudspeakers that are a "poor" version of mine Pioneer HPM 1500.
The big differences are that HPM 150 is a only one cabinet loudspeaker, HPM 1500 is a two cabinet loudspeaker and so also some specs like cutting frequency of crossover are different between 150 and 1500.
Asap I will post the pics of the rest of my hi-fi vintage collection
