System assembled from mostly not currently used or backup components other than the Vault 2 and BDI console. Cabling is Monster for speakers, Nordost and Linn for IC’s. All PC’s are stock with no power conditioners.
What a great sounding room! The floor is suspended and the speakers have their spikes installed. I can’t believe the bass I get out of those little 5 inch woofers in this large room. The speakers were gutless in a prior smaller room.
I’m very impressed with this setup. A great sounding room with less than high dollar components still sounds great.
I made a few system changes, repositioned the speakers closer together and reduced toe-in. Next up was replacing the stock power cords with a Nordost Brahma on the Manley, and an Audioquest NRG10 on the ST500. The speaker position alteration improved the soundstage and imaging. The power cords were the big surprise. I really didn’t expect the improvement that resulted in a relatively modest system.
