What's your setup/configuration look like?

Slight update to my main system. Moved my amp ultra into the office system and the ultra + vibelnk into this one. Also added my Yamaha as501 back in, with a speaker switch to swap between it and the vibelink. Vibelink will be used mainly for tv/movies and casual listening, and Yamaha for more dedicated listening sessions. Other gear is Yamaha cd player, QAcoustics 3030i speakers and tonewinner sub.

Couple of shots from my setup and it should be apparent that vinyls and gaming are pretty domineering here. Yamaha surround processor is placeholder waiting for repairs and relocation.

Consoles etc. are connected to TV via HDMI and television sound output into Ultra via optical (no free HDMI's for ARC :D ) Ultra drives the CA DAC. Still keeping the CA as the separation of mains and device powers is usually better idea - need to try WiiM without CA at some point though.

Missing from the picture is my venerable Creek OBH-8SE phono stage - lies hidden in the rack and as with the DAC will undergo listening test against Ultra at some point as well.

Another missing piece is my beloved L-75 turntable, which is still waiting for the half century maintenanance - so many projects, so little time due full time job.

Going forward I'm considering couple of Sounds (Lites ofc), or even three for 4.0 or 5.0 setup, B&W's have plenty enough bass for block of flats. Some kind of surround setup would benefit gaming and movies anyways.
