Description

This is my (temporarily in the bedroom) system. Alot of the components are leftovers from an older midfi system (the powerwedge, rack and speaker cables) so it's in a process of constant upgrading. The bedroom setting also creates problems with speaker placement etc, but it IS just temporary.

Nice system. The use of Curly Maple is good change from the typical loudspeaker.

Caught your post on Ozzies thread regarding SR cables. I'm headed down that path soon. PowerCell or power cables is what I'm looking at first.
