So what do you do on your 30th birthday... You re-organize your setup for the last time.

This setup is the most compromised setup in regards to speaker cable runs so I will be making some of my own DIY cables using Audioquest FLX 14/4 wire paired down to 11 gauge for each binding post. Still unsure what IC's I will be going with, Douglas Connection or Kimber Kable PB&J's. Either way the longest IC run is actually from the Harman Kardon Citation 11 pre-amp to my Sunfire TGP-II and I will be going with Blue Jeans Cable LC-1's or the Audioquest Sidewinders on sale (14 footers).

Here is the gear actually connected:

Sources:
Denon 3910 via RCA
Computer via Meridian Explorer (3.5mm to dual RCA)
TT via Harman Kardon Citation 11

Pre-amp: Sunfire TGP-II

Amp: NAD 2600 (on loan from IndyHawg)
Fisher 460t tube amp (in need of repair)
Carver M1.0t (in need of repair and going in the main HT when working)

Speakers: Polk RTA 11TL's (stock) with Meniscus Audio spikes

Speaker Wires: Partially Oxidized Monoprice
Speaker IC's: Radio Shack till replaced

I will get better pics when I get some time, these were just shot quick so I can get to bed..

    LOL, man your trying to get me into trouble lol...

    Whats missing is interconnects that aren't 18 gauge radioshack ones, speaker wires that aren't oxidized, a working tube amp, laserdisc player (in my trunk till tonight), and MUCH better cable management lol....

    Thats where to start.....

    Just giving you a hard time and trying to find an excuse to drive half way to Indy. The closet would work sound wise... it would still be quite effective due to the nature of low freq, but you would need to put some kind of weather stripping around the door frame to keep the door shut tightly so as not to have significant rattling.

    Yeah, I would just leave the door open when it and yes there would be SIGNIFICANT rattle on the cheap metal partition sliders lol.. I figured it would still sound good and it would put the sub directly behind the sweet spot which means I wouldnt have to have it as loud.

    I know your just messing with me Travis... I have wanted that sub since you got it :biggrin: but timing is everything....
