Description

Just moved back to my loft after a remodel and the system is sounding good. The room is 70 feet long and 22 feet wide with a 22 ft high ceiling. It used to be a beer brewery and they converted the place to lofts. Concrete floors and ceiling.

The Audio Research Reference 3 preamp raised the system to a whole new level. It sounds outstanding.

The home theater portion really cooks....I plan to get the top of the line InFocus projector later this year.

Did you buy or do you rent? I've always liked lofts. Are you located in the Mid-west?
