speakers and cables

We are here to help you spend thousands of dollars

that made my day!

It looks tight but there is some room like 10 inches to the left, 5 inches to the left. I can rearrange it whichever way I want, move the subs, these pieces are like LEGO. Stacking sounds a bit brave without vibration control? (But you are right, stacking is what I am trying to get close to, placement-wise. 

Most of my vinyl is not in the picture, I feel I have enough. (Not a lot, but maybe 200 or so)

I bought materials to build a rack. That’s my next project.

If I had money, I would buy a new cartridge . And then a new power amp. A rack is definitely in the plans when it rains 100 bills :)

That's a good cartridge. Also looking for a new one myself, going to get a Sumiko one. Other then buying new music, it's amazing how much money we can spend on all the little things.  Also trying to sort out footers on my gear, so many choices! Don't want to spend more on them, than what the gear cost. 

@mswale yes it’s like an animal farm, the more you have, the more it continues to cost. Kind of like when I walk into a rich person’s house, my first thought "nice but I would not want to pay the utility bills!"

Since you sound like a vibration guy, how would I stack them? What would I put between the subs and the speakers?

update: I added the 100Hz high filters.

So now the mains aren't singing as they used to but they are not overlapping either. I am OK with the sound, not enthusiastic, I guess the placement game shall begin. At least it sounds clean and detailed.

Still working on my vibration solution. This stuff gets stupid expensive. A little piece of metal with a few springs, $600 EACH! 

For the subs, you got to find a spot where they add bass, but not standing waves. A corner of the room, or in the middle of the speaker is a good starting point. 

I found these cheap little squares, they are under a lot of my equipment. Put them under the footers of the subs, if you stack, put them between the 2 subs as well. They work surprisingly well. ISO pads
