New speakers have been set up...the pictures don't do the finish justice. Absolutely gorgeous.
Very nice! I'm so jealous of all this new gear people are getting during lockdowns. Can't wait to get into a new place and get everything set up again.

I have been on the fence @Mike Reeter about the Parasound A21+ as it would take some work to rearrange the setup to accommodate a hot amp (Class D's run quite cool)
I'll be looking for your impressions (even though it's the previous run) on it soon!
Ryan, beautiful setup my man, bet it sounds glorious.

I was in talks with a Dealer about a new A21+. But, being as we have been hemorrhaging cash every day, I decided to go the least expensive route. I ended up with a VERY nice A21.
For my current wants/needs this Amp takes care of that inch very well.

I have been told that the 2m bronze I now have on this turntable needs about 50 hours to break in. I put about 8 on it today. I think it has about 15 now and seems to be opening up.

They most certainly do Tony, the Lampi has been one of the best components I've ever owned. The presentation is so Spacious, one Reviewer stated "The Amber 3 had transformed my room into a Concert Hall", I have to agree.
I've been listening to a lot less Vinyl as of late, and I've always been a Vinyl guy at heart.

Can you pan out to see your front wall? I'd like to see what you have there. Looks like acoustic treatments??

In a way, yes. The legs on the Rack are actually 1-1/2" Schedule 40 PVC Pipe. The legs can cut to whatever length you need.
I like to keep the shelves at about a 2" spacing between the gear, still room to breathe, but helps conceal the wires also.
They most certainly do Tony, the Lampi has been one of the best components I've ever owned. The presentation is so Spacious, one Reviewer stated "The Amber 3 had transformed my room into a Concert Hall", I have to agree.
I've been listening to a lot less Vinyl as of late, and I've always been a Vinyl guy at heart.
The A21 has taken the Music to a whole different level. Impressive Amp for sure.
Mike that room looks so great, I'll post it again for you.
I remember the front view with the panels which I saved, but I don't remember seeing the turntable to the right.
I'm sure it is relaxing to sit there even without music and enjoy what you have accomplished.
