Michael Fremer's system

Oooops ... Paul McGowan - sorry Paul.

Seems like a typical gearhead, audiophile, mad-scientist laboratory.  When you are as busy as he is there isn't time to be neat and pretty.  He's eccentric, extremely knowledgeable and pretty humorous as well.  Good for him!  And - I'll take the Alexx speakers anytime he get tired of them.  Go Michael, and thanks for all your work, listening and critiquing.

Maybe I should invite him over here ? Anyone knows his email that he actually checks ?

I hope he has his records off the floor.  Water heaters eventually fail and he had records right beside his in the utility room. I like a tidy room but to each there own. Like he said it is a work space.

I suppose he certainly derives pleasure from his "work." I prefer to have separate work and leisure spaces. I also believe a cluttered space can make for a cluttered mind, but some thrive in such environments.

Every pair of speakers I’ve owned benefits from ample breathing room, especially when it comes to front-wall proximity. He claims his room treatments negate those boundary issues, but I have a hard time believing that claim. If he does experience bass issues, the culprit is no mystery.

That said, he owns some very nice gear. I love the look of his monoblock amps.
