Great systems in butt-ugly rooms

I love my man-cave ... It's not pretty and I have stuffed it with audio and computer gear. It's dimly lit with neon lights and the acoustics are third rate.

Sure I would love a 20' X 30' room with lofty ceilings to spread out in but thats for all you rich guys. The rest of us have to live with the "third bedroom" or the converted garage. So to you Feng Shui lovin, flower vasein, chandelier hangin, pink walled pretty boys out there : I'd take a signed Led Zeppelin album cover tacked to the wall next to a Greatful Dead poster and my old comfy futon chair if it means I dont have to sell my Mac 275. For me it comes down to choices : I'd rather spend the cash on equipment. As for acoustic treatments - I'm all for that, but when I look at some of the "systems" posted, I cant help but wonder if Tammy Fay Baker isnt alive and well. My significant other can have the living room ... but stay the hell out of my man cave.

WAF .... gimmy a break - What about MAF?

Yeah - MAF still alive and kicking in my cave.

Horseface

I am speechlessly impressed with your excellent counterpoint, and may have to go and humbly bury my face in my 7' pink velvet sofa.

I can also confirm, however, that cranking the Lemon Song and shotgunning a few beers goes better with 12 foot ceilings than you might think.

Cheers,

Simple and nice, not nice and simple.

i may have forgotten something in my original post:
my room isn't a crytal cathedral with ornate bronze thingamajiggs
or anything fancy. It's 13x17 with 8'ceilings
with a soft and plush sectional near the middle.
But it loooks good and the system sounds great.
And though the walls aren't pink, the chicks that come
over (for obvious reasons) love lighting my candles
for me.
