Shiva Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Okay Shiva's house it is. I contacted some forum friends and have 43 commitments so far. What will you be serving? Though Shiva's home contains the entire Universe within it, my home seats 5 comfortably. Apocalypse Now will sound slammin for anyone venturing to Southern California who wants a listen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Here's my 2-channel system. Going to stick with this for a year or more and let it bake in.. maybe now I can focus on paint and carpet in this room. '83 Cornwalls, in custom DBB cabinets (only one woofer being used) with Aletheia made crossovers (Jupiter flat stack caps, wax impregnated blah blah, teflon coated wire blah blah) 2010 MacBook Pro running Roon. SSD, 8GB RAM, ethernet, blah blah Schiit Gungnir with USB Gen2 module. BJC interconnects. Custom dual mono SEP amp from Maynard. Flexy Rack made using 3/8" threaded rod and Ikea chopping boards 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivernuggets Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Very nice setup Thad. Been meaning to make a DIY rack like that. Are there only two 3/8" rods, or is the third out of sight? The cork feet provide increased air flow under the SEP amp, but what are the cork pads for under the MacBook and Gungnir? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 two rods up front, one in the rear-middle. the cork underneath laptop and dac was for aesthetics and to keep from scratching the wood. and highly scientific anti-vibration of my 1's and 0's. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivernuggets Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Who am I to argue that 0s and 1s need some cushion? I'm sure it releases the tannins in the tubes, giving a full, more robust sound. The cork does look very cool. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wardsweb Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I built this stereo stand this past weekend. It is made from 1-1/2 Baltic birch and stained with black cherry.
