Rivernuggets Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Great setup Nectar. Very inspiring! Any guesses as to what the HT room in heaven has for equipment? You mean besides Klipsch speakers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted December 24, 2011 Moderators Share Posted December 24, 2011 Any guesses as to what the HT room in heaven has for equipment? Since He created music and our passion for it, I'm sure he could make his own brand of gear and speakers that would far supersede anything we have ever experienced here on Earth. Perfect acoustics, no room nulls, cancellations, ground loops or hums...and I bet there won't be a bad seat in the house! [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audible Nectar Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 very nice indeed. my KLF20s are too much for my wife so I have a long time before I could pull off your system in plain view! I bet it sounds great. what wires are you using? Helpful hint on that decor issue: Try Heritage. As any good salesman knows, there's always an opening which can be exploited when dealing with an otherwise skeptical person. In my wife's case, it's a like of antiques and other fine furniture that offered "The Opening", in which I could introduce the idea of "speakers as furniture". It also helps that she loves music as I do, so the idea of an audio system isn't totally unwelcome - but many, many speakers out there look like speakers, where Heritage look like furniture. So instead of "I LIKE that" when shown a minty pair of '68 Cornwalls, or "Those are beautiful" when I brought home the Belles, it's "mehhhhhhh......" with something like a KLF series speaker, because as good as they sound, they still look like gear. Heritage can be made to look very "homey", and with a bit of interior decorating and woodworking skill can look downright rich. And vacuum tube gear can be a real "hit" if selected and presented properly...... Cables: Nothing too fancy here - Monoprice for HDMI and optical digital cables, Monster 14ga for speakers, and Audioquest for ICs.....except for the Peach/VRD ICs which are custom built from a local tube and audio guru. I reserved such persnickety points of view for the Mac vintage system, which will be profiled soon - where extreme lengths were taken to arrive at the best caps, tubes, and so forth.

Audible Nectar Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 It's all good. No offense taken, just stating that there are some like myself that do believe in the rapture. +1 Any guesses as to what the HT room in heaven has for equipment? No, but the two channel room has McIntosh MC30s on a pair of KHorns[H] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
