I added a 2 ft. partition to my wall to spread everything out especially the speakers. I think it looks a lot better + i was able to pull the speakers out from the wall. have a few things to clean up, A few cables, finish the base board behind the right speaker where i added the 2 foot extension. I also programed the Polk audio logo, and put it to the laser today. I also turned a TT weight on the lathe. I have a TT clamp in the works as well was hoping to finish it this week.

    Thanks Metal. I really did'nt think the TT weight would make that much of a change in sound,I was wrong it sounds much better. Now i want to see how the TT clamp works.

    Looks very nice man! That Polk sign looks cool.

    There's a guy on Ebay that makes custom neon signs, I've been thinking about contacting him about making me a Polk Audio neon sign. I think it'd look good in between the black lights that I have hanging over my setup.:cool:

    Looks great. How wide is the wall where you have that set up. And that is the A6 center, it does look big.

    The same account that bumped the thread with the "Casablanca" neon sign. I don't remember the name but all of their posts seem to have been wiped away. :p
