    Nice set up! Love garage rigs! Too bad I live so far north and my garage is a winter salt/dust magnet in the summer! Can't do a garage rig up here. That will have to wait till retirement.

    I do have some ideas though. Have an old Pioneer VSX-7500 (pretty similar to the 9500 and shares some internals with the TOTL VSX-D1S of the early '90s?) And maybe some Monitor 10s or Boston A100s or both? A Sony CDP, and a cheap TT from the early 80s, maybe a LAB 395?

    . Ive heard alot of good on the Pioneer bookshelf speakers. Do those tower speakers do as well ? Nice garage system. Not sure the sub is big enough though :)

    We recently moved and I built a new garage rig on the cheap. Sounds fantastic.
    Kenwood Int amp, Magnavox CD changer and some ADS monitors:

    My stereo system is in the garage. It is completely finished with carpet over concrete, insulated, air conditioned and heated. I had family move in for a couple of years so we turned it into a play room that morphed into a man cave (complete with power panel, hot water heater, etc). I have not parked a car in it for years. The nice thing is that it has an insulated exterior door into the house that is a long way from the bedroom so when the wife goes to bed I let the system rock!ck6ke1accbpx.jpg

    I don't like the idea of electronics in the garage, they tend to sweat when heating the garage here in the north. I just use zone 2 off the main system, an IR repeater, and an old 13" TV to control it all.

    Rocking a set of 10s in my garage as well, powered by an old but beautiful Sansui AU-555a. Took my old Sony progressive scan 5-disc DVD player out there too. Don't have the room yet to get the turntable out there...

    Currently in the planning stages of re-doing my entire garage and the hifi system will be at the heart of the new setup.

    I love seeing these rigs! Monitor 10s in the garage truly rock!
