I saw a holographic sound stage at a guys home about 20 yrs ago.It seemed as though you could walk between or stand behind the performers.No one believes me.lol I didn't realize how hard it was to get that effect.I havn't seen it since.Any ideas on a good monitor match for this system.My best friend Sam the pit bull.
Jfg, you definitely don't look 73. Congratulation on your young genes. To entice you, a nice used vintage tt (when they were great in the hay-day) is very modestly priced. I also buy used LPs for .50 at GW.
Jfg, You really do have a great choice of equipment, and wouldn't change any of that. I've owned or heard some of what you have and know about the rest of it. Great stuff that I'd be pleased to upgrade to. Have you thought about adding a turntable because the 3A preamp has a killer phono stage.
Now as far as 3d imaging, room treatment is important for sure, but you have a rug and heavy drapes to help in that respect. Beyond that, I've notice the biggest improvement in an average room with speaker placement. They need a lot of room to breath with no obstructions behind, sides, and between.
Great choice of equipment, especially you preamp. I've wanted that preamp for year, especially for its great phono stage. You should add a nice turntable now.
