I have only one cd-deck, that is the X555ES with a small modification. Replaced almost all caps with Panasonic ones. Really sounds stunning.
It’s a bit dark, will make a new picture. The other is a JA20ES minidisc recorder.
Btw. I believe the ZA5ES was Sony’s last good ES DAT recorder they made.
Nice collection. Always loved the Marantz 
Here is a picture of part of my home studio setup, the DCC 951 is on the top right - it is rather full, I know, I kept adding gear 
There also is a great Revox B215 cassette deck, Revox A77 mk IV 2 track reel to reel recorder, Sony minidisk and DAT recorder and some more stuff.
My DCC 900 is in my study (with more gear) but is taken apart for a recap right now.
Here a (not so good) picture of the side of my workbench, where the decks are.
From top to bottom:
-DCC300
-Technics CD player
-DCC730
-DCC600
-DCC951
-CD911
Not shown here are the gazillion other players and also portables that I have stored somewhere else 
Before you ask: no, that is not an official Pink Floyd DCC. It is a (very well made) fan made one that I bought once.

Wow… and only one set of ears!!!
I love the clean setup and the space between the components. Makes it breath doesn’t it? That turntable must sound nice with that big glass platter! I give you a 10 out of 10!
I would love to have the same space between the setup as @GidionDehaan but this originated because of growing up kids. You want to protect those valves from any balls thrown around the place, so I put it in a Chinese cupboard. And it more or less works…
The Thorens though needs a more stable situation. Kids are grown up, no more balls flying around… now all I need is a space to mount it firmly on the wall, so one can actually walk around without skipping a groove…
I see you have a Realistic Tape Control Center from Radio Shack managing part of that setup, too. Good choice – I have two of them myself. 
Hello, great configurations, my setup:
Somewhere …
under the bed the dcc300 rest in peace
One day it stopped making a noise carrying away a cassette of tears for fears. I"ve have a question, after disassembling and reassembling completely the deck, there is one small steel ball left and i don’t remember where it is
About my dcc730, it’s in the cave, it freezes. when i just open cassette deck drawer without cassette, after 2 times, it freezes. I Disassembe cassette deck and it worked about 3 weeks. it seemed problems was near motors and connectors. To be continued …with the help of dcc museum !!!
Thanks
Awesome set up and loving the Marantz. Absolutely awesome. I am now looking for a matching Marantz tape deck or cd player think it is the sd62

Thanks (hope you are all still awake 
Am addicted to the Philips dcc170 and now trying out the dcc130
Stax amplifier with DAC to boost the playback
Top 3 pre recorded tapes are:
Haha and for bonus points The Dire straits, on every street is a fake and I was scammed believing it was the album vs a show case.
That’s a pretty impressive stack, there! You definitely have at least a couple of formats in that system that I don’t have – I never did get into DAT, and there’s a couple of other units in there I don’t recognize…
Is that one of those Sanyo microcassette decks sitting on top of the Elcaset unit? Now that’s rare! As I recall, those things were hardly even on the market for more than a year or two, and I never knew anyone who owned one. Where on earth do you find metal-bias microcassettes for it?
