Description

After 5 years in this game with changing equipments when butget allowed, my system now can produce the music I like. I listen mostly to jazz (Diana Krall, Partricia Barber,.. ) and my loving Vietnamese music (I am Vietnemese). Sometimes Rock ad Classical. The best achievement on my system was the time when I installed all the bass traps. They make music floating in my room with a vast 3D soundstage.

Welcome to all opinions on how to improve my system more.

Thanks

I have audio in my laptop in the form of wav format. I use once in a while with my system and sure sound pretty good. I personally can't hear the difference between redbook cd and wav or aiff format but I can hear a huge difference between mp3 and cd. I believe that the components use reflect on how good the sound is.

Nice setup Dangcaonguyen. I like how incorporated acoustic treatment to room. Nice job! I am also looking for a cd player since mine doesn't work anymore. Do you have a budget for a cd player?
