This is my current stereo setup at the moment. I have 4 speakers connected to an amplifier (ignore the small computer speakers). The top 2 speakers came with my JVC HiFi which is about 5 years old. The bottom 2 are the real beauties, they're Wharfedale laser-range speakers that my uncle brought home from England about 30 years ago and i currently have them, and i must say they still sound fantastic and they make the floor vibrate which i ****ing love. Old analog equipment just rocks.
The amplifier (bottom right in picture) is a Toshiba which i also got off my uncle, i think it's just as old as the Wharfedale speakers, and it has analog bass and treble knobs which is great.
Then i have my JVC HiFi (near top right) which is just your typical 3-CD, 2 cassette, radio and remote control job, i got this as a xmas pressie one year. This is connected to the amp using a headphone-socket to phono socket lead. I can use this lead to connect anything really, i plug it into my mp3-player and laptop as well.

Best of all none of this equipment cost me a penny :D

For a handmedown system, thats actually pretty awesome, although I'd say its still a ways from 'hi-fi' by modern standards...particularly since making the floor vibrate is actualyl a BAD thing in terms of accurate sound reproduction...

I suggest you read this, it'll give you a thorough grounding in the basic concepts of hi-fi reproduction. http://www.musicbanter.com/members-j...tml#post516785

(Note - bass and treble knobs are actually detrimental to full reproduction of sound. They add another degrading link in the signal chain. Many higher end amplifiers come with a true bypass button that disables them for this reason.)

I'm running a JVC RX-315 receiver, a JVC XL-F152 5-Disc changer through a stereo set of Panasonic "Super Woofer" speakers that came with some combo stereo that I never had. I also have an old (maybe late 80's) Fisher Studio Standard deck set and the original speaker towers, but none of it is hooked up because it's too big for my room.

That's just my stereo though....as for my computer....it's all about the $22 Logitech 2.1 set.

sounds pretty good for being just two 2" drivers and a 3.5" ported woofer box. I'm amazed by it. :bowdown: Logitech.

Here's mine again, just upgraded a lot of it. (Please view the Pic, none of this makes sense without it.)

Screen - LG 32LH7000 (Full 1080P 32" and it looks the business, IMO.)
Speakers - Mordaunt Short Mezzo 2's (If you recall, the first set went faulty. Had no problems with the second set.)
Amplifier - Kenwood R-SE7 Pure Class A amplifier. (Great little thing.)
Outboard DAC - Cambridge Audio DacMagic (Fantastic little magic box)
Interconnecting Cables - USB to the DAC from the PC, and from the DAC to amp, running Cambridge Audio Azur Reference phono cables.
PC - Athlon X2 4400+, 8600GT, Antec P180 case, 2.3TB of storage

Console - 360 via HDMI to the Screen. Am going to get it plumbed into the amp ASAP. (Now Playing - Red Faction: Guerilla, and Star Ocean: TLH)
