Basement/man cave/record storage system. Crazy long odd shaped room actually sounds terrific. Cary integrated powers jack to plug in outdoor speakers. AL 5’s fill up every square inch with warm sound. Had a huge flood 10 years ago and decided to finish basement. Hidden mechanicals, laundry, storage and large bathroom created peculiar L- shaped room. Works well for my purpose.
Honestly, I usually sit at the table in front of cabinet. Have a nice tasty beverage. Surprisingly full and detailed sound everywhere in narrow section of the basement. I’m not so much a dedicated sit alone listening chair guy. Music is more social for me. The cary powers a pair of harbeth’s that I drag out back.
