First post!
My systems are all pretty old, but then so am I.
We're all "fully functional."
This lot I bought in the early seventies.
I'm using an vintage Shure M75 ED cartridge.
I changed the belts on both the cassette player and turntable over a decade ago.
I've been into jukeboxes for about fifteen years.
This has Motown and similar, Soul and R&B
This has 50/60/70/80s pop and a few doo-wop and classic standards.
I got into jukebox wall box selectors, back in the days when their only other use was as fancy telephone directories, so they were as "cheap as chips." Jukebox owners were the first to find out about the adapters which were being made available. So I bought two on eBay.

Just added THe Pioneer Elite VSX Lx301 AVR and the Eversolo DMP-A6 Streamer to my home office setup
A couple of "upgrades."
I think I'm done for now, I'll be sending the upgrade bug to someone else. I upgraded the speakers in my home office from the aging Polkaudio R50 towers to Polkaudio R600 towers along with R900 height speakers.
I've recently finished updating and upgrading my system. The only thing left are my speakers, and I think I'll be hanging on to my current ones for the time being.
The rack does need upgrading though.
The CD transport is a Aqua Acoustics La Diva mk2,
Shunyata Sigma v2 AES/EBU,
Cardas Golden Reference power cord,
The Gryphon Essence pre-amp,
Cardas Clear Power cord,
Cardas Clear Reflection interconnect,
The Gryphon Essence power-amp,
Shunyata Sigma v2 NR power cord,
Cardas Clear Reflection speaker cables,
Avalon Acoustics Avatar speakers,
Puritan PSM156 power conditioner
Shunyata Sigma v2 XC power cord,
Synergistic Research Purple fuses, 2 off
AMR fuses, 2 off
Acoustica Applicata Daads and Eco Daads
GIK acoustic panels.
Shun Mook Mpingo discs and Spatial Control kit.
HRS Nimbus isolators and damping blocks.
Quadraspire audio rack.
I built a box filled with Basotect acoustic foam to isolate my gas fire as it rings like a bell.
When I listen to music I cover the television and soundbar with a velvet style material.

I've just added a Velodyne SPL-800 Ultra sub-woofer.
I've recently ordered a pair of YG Acoustics Ascent speakers and a pair of Fyne Audio Supertrax supertweeters.
I currently have them on demonstration.

I've now added seven Harmonic Resolution Systems Nimbus NA-150 footers, three under the pre-amp and four under the power-amp. Wow what an improvement. More focused and a complete removal of any ringing of upper piano notes. It's cleaned up the higher piano notes beautifully.
I've just taken delivery today of a new pair of YG Acoustics Ascent speakers. In addition I've also got an Acoustica Applicata Halifax and two GIK 242 panels suspended from the ceiling. I've hung them at the reflection points from the speakers to my chair.
