Sure, I know this might at first glance seem completely egotistical and very much "look at MY toys", but my audio system is really rather modest:
A refurbished Technics 1200 turntable, a couple of Fluance speakers from Canada (which are a little larger than "bookshelf size" ), a Polk Audio subwoofer, and -- "at the center of it all" -- a $65 receiver intended for karaoke (a MouKey MAMP1), which does the job just fine.
@gambrel saidLuckily my house was built circa 1973, so they probably might have taken such things into account for its design.
I'm so old I remember when a 100 watt system would dim the house lights when turned up. It was a Phase Leanier or something like that.
I did used to work in an office where if someone used the microwave, it would reboot everyone's computers. That didn't go over too well, and I think they did find a fix for that.
@kevin-eleven saidHa. Our home has knob and tube wiring. If you turn on a light with more than 40 watts fuses blow.😲
