Post photos of your systems/rooms here! (Part 15)

- The crazy thing is I have enough in boxes for another shelf! I just need to figure out where in the world the second shelf will go in the house before I pull the trigger! It's craziness!

 

Yep. Craziness is the word I use every time I run out of space.

 

If it makes you feel less crazy, I'm getting close to filling two 5x5s...

 

Nice work! I wish I had a wall that big to work with

 

- Exactly! I'll have to put my second shelf into another room, unfortunately.

 

That was the solution at my old place. I'm not sure what I'm going to do when I run out of room here!

 

You sir have a lot of work to do! Nice work, but work none the less. Enjoy!

 

Oh yes, I know very well.

Setting up the system will be easy, room treatment will be more complicated and not cheap. About that, I asked Studio Sound Service in Florence, Italy for professional assistance. This will include motorised tents to acoustically decouple the vaulted ceiling while listening, computerised room analysis, diffusing and absorbing panels, bass traps, ancient rug and arras.

As of now, I just loaded my main vinyl ammunitions.

 

Now that is ridiculously awesome.

 

Must be nice lol. My wife and I went to Florence around 20 years ago. Very beautiful city. The women were gorgeous too. Was a good time, except for all the elbows to the ribs from my wife lol

 

My stereo system (pic from Nov 2016):
- Cambridge Audio Azur 651BD
- Denon AVR x2200w
- LG Smart TV 42"
- Monitor Audio Silver 8 speakers



The new surround system (pic from Jan 2017):
- Monitor Audio Silver Center and Silver FX added (not in pic)

 

Another pic. Here you can see the system and the view from my balcony on the Melbourne CBD.
It's particularly relaxing to spend time here at night (and nobody has complained about the volume, so far...)

 

Gorgeous, @albertop !

 

Thanks!

 

nice crib!

 

Look mate. Can you turn that down, please?

Ha ha, love from Liverpool, UK

 

Haha. The apartment is rather small, so I'm quite surprised that the neighbours have been tolerating quietly. Maybe they like the music

 

Looks fantastic.

I have the slightly older x2000 for my HT setup, love the sound of the Denon's.

 

Very nice! Love that album too.

 

When I first looked at this quickly I thought the view through the sliding doors was a wall of gear !

 

Replaced the Audio-GD with the Schiit stack today. Bifrost Multibit and Asgard 2. ATM sounds ok, just on the bright end of things. Should get better with leaving the DAC on all the time and burn in.

 

I like that tv/media stand. From where did you source that?

 

Thank you. It was designed and made locally, in Melbourne. I don't remember the name of the designer, but I know his products are available for purchase from a local reseller, Exhibit Interiors, in the Melbourne CBD. They change design every year, now that's what they have on display on their website:
FAROE TV UNIT | Exhibit Interiors
Curva Tv Unit | Exhibit Interiors

It's also becoming quite trendy to design and make your own stand taking advantage of a CNC milling or a laser cut service. There should be plenty of those in your area, run by young designers.
Hope this helps!

 

Very nice system. I bet it sounds terrific. I've read nothing but glowing reviews of the LS50 actives. I love my lounge pre-amp. Most people would look at this setup and not realize the quality it has. But a lot of us audiophiles do.
