Description

This is a small room, formerly the "guest" room on the first level. Speakers, equipment and cables stay out of the public living spaces.  My Contours would benefit from a larger open space, like our den.  Update: Equipment moved to side wall; no longer in-between speakers.

One advantage is that this room is towards the very front of the house and is far away from other bedrooms. I can crank Led Zeppelin at 1am and not impact upstairs master bedroom. 

(note: wife reference removed; its about the room, not the wife; peace)

Superb system...period! 
I heard the MA352 w/ Klipsch Forte4 IV and NA6005. It was the best system I've heard in a long time. Being familiar w/ the Dynaudio sound I'm sure that you a killer combo w/ the Mac. If you ever have a chance to hear the Max w/ the Klipsch Heritage speakers give it a whirl.

Great system. I've seen others talk about the Mac/Dynaudio sound.
I heard the MA352 w/ Klipsch Forte IV and was blown away. Not much can compete w/ that hybid Mac's sound for the price in my opinion.
