Description

One room thanks to my wife, 14.5' x 20' x 8'. There are 2 power reclining seats, there will be another added as soon as I can find the correct listening chair. The back wall holds my 5000+ albums & some CD's. I have slide out shelving to the right side to hold yet more vinyl.  Just outside the room in a small closet is my mono vinyl collection. I'm retiring so it's time to make what may be my last hardware updates for a while.

Your system is very similar to mine: room size, Parsifals, and ARC preamp (but mine is a GNS modified Ref.1), even the size of our music collections I have the Verity's set up along the long wall and they sound mighty fine. I have been looking for new speaker cables and might check into the FMS.
