Description

The room makes all the difference. This was a converted garage that the ceiling was popped to 10ft   Double 5/8 drywall with green glue makes the room extremely quiet  . 3 dedicated 20 amp circuits, 1 dedicated 15.  Hidden Treasure outlets. 

Low back seating makes it very comfortable and really sounds great in any position in the room. Of course the sweet spot is always the sweetest.   Looking for something that I can cover the 85” Sony 900 H but certainly do not want to give up the immersive Video  for a bit of SQ.

    • Antipodes Audio Antipodes EX
    Currently using as a streamer. Roon located on a PC
    • T+A DAC 200
    Using as an analog preamp into the Laiv Gan amps . Really an outstanding Dac I was a little concerned about a lot of chatter that you had to feed it High rate DSD to get its best. While I don’t know if that’s true as the best I can feed it I DSD 64 from ripped files but streaming Tidal and Qobuz and red book files sound fantastic. A nice step up from the Bricasti M3 streaming Dac.
    • Laiv Ganm mono block amps
    Don’t sleep on these amps. Modern,ultra transparent but natural sound. Plenty of power to drive most speaker systems in most rooms. Easily fills my 27x17x10 Golden ratio room.
    • Borresen X3
    • Puritan Audio Labs PSM 156
    Everything including the Coda is  plugged into the Puritan. Great value!!

    You Tube sounds pretty damn good thru the system. To hold people’s attention sometimes you have to add video.

Helluva nice place. I put Townshend Seismic Podiums under my custom-built Tannoys not too long ago. Really enjoy how they sound nowadays. They must be helping to get the most out of your Paradigms.

Enjoy (as I know you are)! Regards,
Dan
