I've been a beginner for a year now and I think my system is complete (maybe). If you have any comments or suggestions, feel free to write. I also ran a power line from the breaker to my room in conjuction with a hubell receptical, hospital grade. All componets are placed on maple, hard wood stands 3"in. (see picture) Thank you to all Stereophile guys for all your help and suggestions for last year! Good luck and happy listening!
That wood blocking the center stage, it has to reflect sound like a TV would. This cannot be good for the center stage. I don't understand why it's there.
It may give me cause to experiment myself, although a wool blanket on the wall still works as well as anything I've tried.
