Incoming! The New Equipment Thread

I’m going through some major system changes. We need some room in the house… my wife and I both have aging parent(s), kids that are back home, both WFH full time, etc. My dedicated music room just seems selfish at this point so I’m making changes….

My current music room will become my wife’s office/guest bedroom. I am doing a wholesale change in my system and switching to a headphone setup until my Decware 300b is ready in 18-24 months. I’ll be relocated to the upstairs loft, where my wife currently works, for the immediate future.

I am selling/trading the whole setup. I acquired a Woo WA5-LE upgraded and ordered a new pair of Western Electric 300b’s. My wife convinced me to not abandon vinyl completely but I traded the MoFi and Pass for the Woo.

In comes a table from a site that I have been watching for years… Vinyl Nirvana. I previously had a TD 160 stock and really loved it. At the time I was running two tables and moved the Thorens on. But I’ve missed it. After I traded the MoFi I went to VN and saw a TD 160 w/SME3009 upgraded that I also previously had and loved. Its everything I want in a table. My Shure V15 III w/Jico stylus has been locked in a drawer long enough. View attachment 221000
Over the weekend I will ship out the M700u, the PL Evo 300, the Harbeths and the JBL sub.

Trying to figure out if I want to keep the Node and D-03x or if I want to switch to an Auralic or HiFi Rose DAC/streamer. Anyone have any experience with them?

A lot going on but I’m looking forward to the changes.
Was looking at the table today on the What's Spinning thread. Thorens, SME and Shure ... what's not to love?
