    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    I was probably three when the 604E drivers I'm using now were made...

    Jesus you're going to get retina damage with those subs... lol

    That's only 4 of the 6. The other 2 are built into corner enclosures for the rear corners of the theater but they are sitting in the storage room.

    I was debating on adding nearfield subs and some midbass modules...just in case.

    Lovely clean setup. Very cool with the yellow accents on the towers and the turntable.

    Thank you. There are more yellow accents throughout the room. That was the deal my wife made when buying a tt. The rest of the gear is hidden in the cabinet which is listed in my signature. This fall we will be adding an area rug, looking forward to that.

    Amps are lurking behind the speakers. Wire management neglected after replacing the CD player (failed to get a new laser working in the other one).

    The Lafayette receiver in the second photo is broken, but I have it on because it looks so stinkin’ nice. Cable management is not a thing, only because my cables are to be replaced soon, quite literally every single one of ‘em.

    I'm getting there. The Bruno Mars stuff was as many have stated before a condition of the ol ball and chain.


    Don't mind the boxes of tweeters ha! Those have since been removed. Cable management for me isn't a big deal, my set up is simple. 3 power cables plugged in, one set of ICs from turn table to pre amp then preamp to integrated's "main in"

    Sorry, all I got right now is garage tunes. Everything else is currently in storage while I recover from moving to a new house.

    The only thing that is different is that I now have an Oppo BR Player in place of the Pioneer.

    That’s great. All my stuff is in a bookcase behind the couch but having it right there is perfect.

    Looks like you’re staying hydrated while listening. That is important ;)

    I don't really like to publicly post photos of my gear because I don't want it to seem like I'm showing off. I feel weird about advertising "wealth" or the impression of having it.
    I totally respect you not wanting to show it but I don’t think anybody would pre-judge you based on equipment, I wish I had the money to spend on some of the setups that I see on here, like Dskip and so on, but alas I’m not there yet.
    Would love to see your gear as I know you are a big fan, especially with the fantastic coverage of that show, but again I respect your decision.

    Being a dealer has its advantages and disadvantages. Many times I miss being simply an enthusiast. The gear is nice, but not really being able to choose whether or not you buy something isn't.

    I can relate completely. I used to be heavily into photography as a hobby and then back in the 90s I started doing it for a job, I got really good at it and I acquired a lot of gear but I lost the passion. I no longer really Dabble except for with my iPhone unfortunately.

    Those new Polks are sharp. Have you heard the 705/707’s and if so what are your comparisons?

    This is fairly accurate. Had some folks over that day. My current pre amp was being demo'd that day and is just off to the right in pic. Not pictured is the Signature Sonore Music Server.

    This listening area is open to main level so subs are needed to assist the low bass. In this pic I was demo'ing some Class D mono blocks. I had also experimented with best placement of subs. Between speakers and tight against wall worked best.

    My little buddy Jasper listens to tunes with me.

    Other updates were the hangover shelf with Bottlehead Eros phono pre amp.

    ykrrdfod444b.jpg

    The Eros sports a custom crotch walnut base finished in Tung oil. The base seems to change its appearance with different lighting throughout the day. Another IERC was sourced for the nekkid tube.
