After 5 years, this is my current system. I converted the garage to the listening room with all acoustic treatment inside the wall.
The room has a bar with all the nice wines, finest cognac and the most exotic cigarrs. With more than 1000 records and around 5-600 cds, they are doing a great job taking me away from daily works and stress. It's pure heaven for me now!
Great since I need it for both CD and DVD (only music)
