Finally got moved in. Sound is good but i have a couple nasty peaks at 80, and 100 hz. Trying different speaker/chair/ treatment options to decrease these humps. I just ordered the new panasonic ae 3000 and Carada 117" 2.35 screen which should arrive next week.

I also just ordered a set of Gregg Staley's reality cables ic's for the Shindo's.

Yes sweet watch. Two of my biggest passions are audio and watches. There's also a pretty long thread here on Gon "what watch do you wear", seems like a lot of audiophiles are also into finely crafted, intricate (and expensive) toys, so high end audio, watches, cameras fit the bill.

Hey great looking system! I have the same Shindo pre and amp as you and am thinking of getting the LV Avatar II. However, I've read that they need at least 18 watts to really shine. The Montille at 15 wpc is just below this, so I was wondering if you notice the speakers are underpowered? Do you think this is a good combination? I'm sure the mids and highs are great, but is there sufficent bass response?
