Listening Impressions

Fun listening room that can get a little ripe in the bass and a little hard at high volumes but delivers a nice spacious window into the recording at normal volumes.

Media Storage

Generic cabinets for most things except the turntable and phono preamp benefit from being set on the base of a brick fireplace -- no vibration problems.
