Description

My house is old (1841) but the media room

Is large with 11 ft ceilings

Lots of new gear and everything is really sounding great. Seven years of work to

Get here. Any kind of music sounds good

With those big Revels.

I have formed a monthly music club with 5 other guys and we do enjoy listening to each others music and systems.

System edited: Added a second amp for vertical bi-amping. Really nice improvement. More power means a need for more power.

As Larry David from Curb Your Enthusiasm often says...Pretty good.... My club buddies give me additional feed back at every session and they all say it has never sounded better.
No ear fatigue, great sound stage and imaging. Trying to get the analog front in set up with a new cart and pre coming this week.

thanks...... it is a nice room but a big room must be managed too to get the sound right. Sometime it takes months or years to accomplish this

I think we need some silly from time to time. I think I will put on a Weird Al Yankovick cd just to keep it going....I love his parody..I Lost on Jeopardy.

Albert, I know you can write the big check so come on up to Virginia. Your system would really work here and I could even call Dominion Power to get you some more current.

System edited: OLD HOUSE (1841 CIVIL WAR HEADQUARTERS) and now old Snell speakers. Just finished installing DIY bass traps and 6 DIY sound panels making a huge difference. Room is almost 20 ft square so I open the rear doors to let some sound out. Ceilings over 11 ft. Working on analog end next. Trying to get the most bank for the buck while dealing with WAF.
