I know there used to be a thread about equipment somewhere back in one iteration of the forum... had a look back but it seems to predate AHOTI-days.
Anyway... what are y'all listening to music on?
I recently moved and got my set up back on track, so I'm using a decent-ish set up for the first time in maybe eighteen months. Makes such a different to the lsitening experience, I now feel myself wanting to listen to music way more than I was for the past while.
This is what I've got - it's on the "budget" end of things, but sounds pretty great to my ears:
Amplifier: Pioneer A-10 (

Speakers: Wharfedale Diamond 220 (

Turntable: Audio Technica AP-LP60 (

I don't have a decent set of headphones and that will probably my next gear purchase... also interested in what headphones you're all using

Speakers: Logitech X-530 70 watts RMS 5.1 Black Speaker System (paid $50 for them at a pawn shop)
I've never been into vinyl, but it's kind of a dream of mine to someday have a large vinyl collection and just sit and admire the artwork while my house rattles
speakers; crappy logitech speakers I bought like 7 years ago and distort if i turn them up too loud
car speakers; blown out and have no bass in the back of my slowly disintegrating nissan pulsar
@geogadd1 they look in the right ballpark for me so i'll check them out too, and the detachable cord certainly seems like a bit of a bonus
@ttk i also use standard iPhone headphones now and then, but they just fall out of my ears which is kind of a pain :(
it's weird, because it seems that 85% of headphones are that way now.
these are the things which fall out of my ears all the time;
Here's what I currently have;
i vastly prefer the comfort of earbuds with the doovie dackies, though, and they act as a natural, rudimentary sound insulator
