Nice pictures of your audio setup

[Smitty2k1]

Snapped a few photos while running my first set of REW sweeps the other day. Subwoofer hiding behind couch.

Chasing good sound since the early seventies. Finally getting close. ASR certainly taught me to quit chasing some of my old bad beliefs thanks ASR

Do you watch TV lying on the carpet and staring at the ceiling?

In this thread you can see some really strange set-ups

I think this fails on two counts. It's not "nice". And it's not "set up". But it's what my desk typically looks like and it works.

How does it work? Does it make a difference?

Here are same naked pics of Sony TC-K 790 ES (the risky but succeed operation by open heart - or by open head?). I like this old technic - isn't nice?

The yellow-brown color of those old PCBs is a delight. I miss it.

So now an older counter-model with my own designs, compared to a computer workstation.

The yellow-brown color of those old PCBs is a delight. I miss it.

It is the typical colour of Pertinax, a fibre composite made of paper and a phenol-formaldehyde synthetic resin.
Today, epoxy resin and glass fibre mats are the main components for printed circuit board base materials.

Since we are posting pictures of headphone setups now, here is mine Those are DCA Stealths sitting on MiniDSP EARS. It is fed music from the laptop which runs JRiver which applies EQ and runs some headphone specific VST's.

Tv has a drop down motor. I leave it in the up against the vaulted ceiling when not watching. 80” Sony. Makes for nice viewing when lowered.

Living in California, land of earthquakes, just looking at that center speaker(?) balanced on it's stand like that is making me tense.

Looks like a fantastic system though, very nice!

Yes not ideal setup if young ones running around. Fortunately I’m a 65 yr old bachelor that has free rein on priorities. Rudy my dog does not care how big my speakers are. A falling over speaker is the least of my worries if earthquake strikes HHI. The tv mechanism is pretty cool. Don’t want that big flat screen messing up the music.

Nice producer's workplace.

I also recently bought an audio interface so I can connect a mic and instrument. Surprisingly, it's also good enough to listen to music with in everyday life by using it as a pure DAC. It even sounds better to my ears than my Topping E30 II.

How did you establish that?

That center channel stand has a War of the Worlds vibe.

That’s actually the open baffle PureAudioProject Trio 15 TB, with the native crossover removed (biamplified via dsp) and the nominal W,FR,W changed to WWFR configuration.

The woofers are made by Eminence and the FR is a Tangband W8-1808.

The frame is very nicely finished aluminum.

Very enjoyable. Needs sub support under about 45 hz.
