All new room and modified system to fit the room. Converted the garage to a dedicated music room with remote AC system, completely dedicated 10 foot ground spike and dedicated circuits. GIK treatments throughout (diffusion on the ceilings and absorption everywhere else) has made the system sing.
And thank you to the following Audiogon gurus: SKushino, Syntax and Halcro.
Very nice, simple looking system. It must sound great. Could you describe the sound of the XA30.5 compared to your old FirstWatt, not that the 30.5 is broken in. Also, you wrote elsewhere that you upgraded your tonearm. Can you share what you did? Thanks.
