Room Treatments from GIK! Room treatments are half the battle.  If you are trying to achieve good sound, you absolutely must have a good sounding room.  Whether it’s damped with GIK panels or books, vinyl records and plush heavy furniture, much of what you hear or don’t hear can be attributed to your rooms response.

I actually quite like this rack.  I have 2 of them so I can change in and out different heights and configurations.  The rack is pretty modular in the way it screws together.  I filled all the legs with play sand.  The rack is pretty heavy and sturdy!

Great sounding Dac!  Very detailed and just really nice sounding for my musical tastes (which lean towards a lot of electronic music).  Perhaps not the most musical dac but I enjoy it quite a bit.  I also think it’s a bargain for what you can get them for on the pre owned market.

Oppo BDP-93 for spinning discs and the occasional blue ray!  This unit has the upgraded Nu Force edition.

I recently acquired these speakers locally.  I’ve been wanting to move from stand mounted speakers to a larger floor standing speaker for awhile now. When I moved into a place where I can play my music as loud as I want, whenever I want, I started really looking. My Fritz Carreras sound so good, especially eq’d, that they beat out everything I put up against them.  When I saw these Salks locally, I pounced on them and am glad I did.  They sound absolutely incredible and are exactly the move I was trying to make.  

75 muscular watts!  I really really like this integrated amp.  It has great modulation on the volume control from the remote which I like.  The openess of the sound along with the bass control are really nice.  I believe I read in the manual that the damping factor was relatively high so that may explain the exceptional bass response
