Now here's a guy who will either inspire you or provoke envy and/or loathing , depending on your attitude to DIY audio.

At least, you must admire the enthusiasm & obvious investment of time & energy, into a music system.

If your attention span is short, I suggest:
(3:10) for a DIY linear tracking tonearm.
(8:00) for Joe's DIY Schoeder string-magnet bearing tonearm.
(9:50) for his amazing DIY turntable (still under construction)

Joe is a retired police officer, we're told.
It appears that he lives in Brooklyn NYC & his horn loudspeaker system is the culmination of 40 years into audio:

Check out his 5-way loudspeaker system, field coil speaker drivers, powered sub, tube amps & cdp (TT still under construction), extensive room re-construction & room treatment.

Wow. Your speakers look tiny by comparison Owen.

Haha, I feel the sweat, endurance & brain-wracking even from here.
Being a DIY guy yourself Graham, you will appreciate the effort (& expenditure no doubt) I'm sure.
