My room, plain, simple and satisfying.

Here's my "listening area", as you called it.

[album]8093[/album]

Don't be fooled by the clean appereance of the wooden floor -normally it's crowded with lots of acoustically damping material: a carpet/road for my children's mini-cars, a train, my little kid playing with his "activity center", cushions for protecting the speakers from a forecoming battle, and everything one can find on a sofa board (magazines, books, crayons, pencils, papers, cereals, remote controls, Dvd's and the like) which eventually must be altogether thrown onto the floor due to the earthqueake caused by a powerful Gormiti or by El Zorro.
I bet you this is a real LISTENING AREA!

Finally have the items on walls that are returning and the furniture in it's "proper" places and all the gear in place and operational.

Here's one of the listening area and then one of the set-up.

Since I posted my original system pics about 6 months ago my son's band has taken over my man cave. Fortunately it's a large room (18' x 26') but I did have to make some concessions like moving some furniture upstairs and letting them use my Marshall 1/2 stack to avoid bringing in another amp. (My 1979 Gibson GK-55 is in the corner behind one of the PA speakers.)

Here are some new photos.

That is possibly the most "musical room" I have seen!

Lovely things, tdat.

I'm just a bit worried about that clock directly above your turntable. Around the corner from me lived a professor of English (now resident in your country, I believe) - who also had a clock hanging above his LP12. I hate to tell you this but somehow, the clock came off the wall and crashed down on the deck.

I know, I know...there are ways to hang a clock...

Thanks for the nice words. Lovely and makes nice music too.

Thanks also for the note on the clock. I think the clock will move above the fireplace and your comment has moved that up the rank of the 427 things on my "honey-do" list. Although I think the movement is for aethetic purposes when combined with safety reasons, it ups the magnitude.

That looks like a Counterpoint amp on that bottom shelf... Like it?

It is a Counterpoint SA-12. It makes lovely music. Most of the chain is fairly revealing, pre/amp/speakers. The Counterpoint works very well with the Dolan PM1 pre and my speakers. I also had the Counterpoint running with a passive pre and Phonomena phono stage. CDs and tape through this setup were great as well. The Dolan is much better with phono. The Counterpoint also was able to drive my Dahlquist DQM-9s very well as well. These are pretty big speakers, although fairly efficient at 8 ohms. The ones I have now (in pic) are 8 ohms about 89 efficiency.
So the short answer is that I love it. Very detailed, yet fluid full presentation.

mine, was previously in the louge, it now has its own room:-






LOVE the SYSTEM...HATE the Wallpaper !

[System92]

I'm new here amongst others. In fact, only two days ago did I setup what is shown below. It's in my bedroom in my parent's house. I only payed for the H/K receiver. The rest was gathered from my dad and grand-parents. I see it as my starting block and wish to build from here in the future.

System92, that is not a bad start. If you have room, you might try spreading the speakers a bit.

Cheers,
