I also need to comment that IMO, a turntable without 3 way drivers and a nice 80s-90s era japanese speakers is a broken aesthetic.

I had a system that was the opposite way around in late 2021. Harman Kardon amplifier, Onkyo 3 way speakers with PIEZOs playing 48khz 16 bit audio from FLAC.

To me, the aesthetic of a music playing device is the QUALITY OF SOUND.

Anything else is like pink flamingos in the garden. Completely tasteless, like a John Waters movie.

THE EGG MANNNNNN!!!
