What is your audio set up?
I listen on an Emotiva pre-amp/amp set up with Ascend Acoustics speakers and HSU Research Sub.
My other system is a Marantz 2250B, Luxman turntable, and ADC 404 mini monitors.

In the living room it’s a pair of Rogers LS2a/2 speakers, a Rega amp, and an Audica Microsub II subwoofer (which will be upgraded once I can afford to).
They subwoofer is largely unnecessary, but it’s there just in case. They all sound amazing together.
Bedroom, I have a pair of KEF LSX2 speakers, for tunes and for the PS5.
They connect via Bluetooth and they sound really plush. Not as good as the living room setup, but still lovely.
Also in the bedroom is a Denon amp and speakers from an old hi-fi setup, and the amp is hooked up to a wee Bluetooth DAC amp.
For old kit, these also sound awesome.
I got a Musaic MP10 for a tenner off eBay a few years ago. Musaic were a crowd-funded startup that tried to go straight into the market competing with Bose, B&O, etc. speakers in a higher price range. They’re bust now, but the speakers they made in their short existence are a different class. Can connect via wi-fi or Bluetooth. RRP £370… mine for £10 because nobody on eBay knew what they were looking at.
This is in the kitchen. 😊
Finally (I think)… I have a Dali Katch 2 as a portable speaker. These wee things are the nuts. The quality of sound from it is unbelievable for something so small. Read the reviews. I can’t do it justice.
When in TB I am sitting at my pc and the setup is: RME Fireface 800 with Yamaha HS80M
My other system is a Raspberry Pi with HiFiberry piping music from HDDs to a Behringer Ultramatch PRO SRC 2496 and a Rotel stereo amplifier.
I have a lot more sound gear since having a small recording studio but for listening to music thats my setup.
I am using some old and new equipment. Tidal, Qobuz, Spotify and network NAS through Roon feeding
(1) Bluesound node 2 + Chord Hugo2 > HD800
(2) Ropieeexl + Audiogd fb28 > HD600
(3) Ropieeexl + Topping DX3 + Belcanto evo 2i > Mission 753]
(4) LG7 (+ Chord Mojo) > Shure 846
Laptop and phone with over ear headphones or antec lansing mini bluetooth speaker. Sometimes I play music through my tv with dlna too. Most of the music I listen to is low bitrate and I don't think it would sound better on better equipment.
Main system: Denon 39 midi system with Dynavoice DM6 speakers. Very capable.
Secondary system (PC): Soundblaster Z with T-amp (ta2020 based) and modified Edifier speakers (used to be active but the amp had too much noise so I converted them into passive speakers. Might replace these with Alesis studio speakers. Shielded near computer use.
Third option: Soundblaster Z (with headphone amp) to AKG 273Pro studio headphones.
Fourth option (portable) Samsung Galaxy S5 neo with Audio Technica "something" in ear.
I strive for neutrality with everything.
