Hi All,
I have decided to build a nice bedside set up over the next years by purchasing a new element every 6 months or so (I know, this may seem slow). My plan is to make long-term purchases of good quality stuff.
As of now, I only have an iPod classic and a pair of Ultrasone Pro 900, meaning that the next purchases should be (in that order) an headphone amp and possibly a CD/SACD player with a good built-in DAC (if someone can convince me that the SQ will be better than a iPod with 320kbps AAC music - LOD - Good amp setup).
Since my dear wife is not so fond of "all my electronic stuff in the bedroom" (i.e. 2 iPods, a flashing-like-crazy-blackberry, IEMs, heapdhones, etc.) for obvious reasons, I'd really like that this set up be as good looking, sleek and discrete and possible. I had in mind something like a Cambridge Sonata AR30/CD30 combo, a Headmap Gilmore Lite (but which source then?) or anything in this price range fitting my criteria.
Would you guys be able to post some pictures of your bedside rigs if you consider that they match my criteria? Any other suggestions or advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
