My system is ... well, not ready

Hi Everyone,

A lot of you have been asking me to look at my system, and it’s been an absolute mess in this apartment. However!! I am moving, and I have posted the new living/listening room up in the Systems part of Audiogon. I’m 3 weeks from occupying that space, so please be patient as it will take a while to clutter it up with electronics. :)

Right now the plan is to put the TV in the bay window. It only looks at the neighbors, so I don’t mind giving it up, flanked by GIK acoustics soffit traps and standalone panels, as well as adding curtains in all the windows and doors and ceiling mounted panels.

The room is about 13' by 17' and I'll be taking lots of measurements as I go along. :)

Best,

E

Tim,

My family fortune going into acoustic panels and air bearing chairs so the reverberation of my buttocks does not interfere with the palladium cable lifters is NOT EXCESSIVE!!

System update: 

Still boxed.  Basically waiting on the flooring guys to come in before I really start to re-assemble it.  In the mean time, I have new porch steps.

I remember back a few years when I had to wait to put my gear back in my room. It'll be over soon enough.

I have updated my virtual system with a current image.  Room is still a mess, and the final GIK Acoustic components are not in but it sounds really good. :)

I spent the weekend binging Sci Fi shows I have been putting off as well as catching up on Marvel Universe flicks. The sound is large and super smooth but the imaging is not very detailed.  Waiting on the GIK diffusors before going nuts with that.

Honestly though the room looks very stark.  It feels great when the lights are dimmed and the curtains drawn I feel like I am in a theater, but it's really not looking great as a living room.
