My Chillout System, a Two-channel Audio System by medium jim

Room Size
16x15x8.5
System Overview
An Audio Research VS110 Amplifier fed into a Bottlehead Foreplay 11 with many upgrades. The digital source is a Marantz CDP 38 that has been highly modified by Ah! Tjoeb (has a pair of Siemens E188CC Pinch Waist tubes in the buffer stage; a pair of B&W ASW300 Subs; a pair of restored Magnepan MG 2.5rt's. I'm using AQ Gibralter Cables from the amps to the subs and Transparent Music Wave Super's from the subs to a special designed Hi Pass Module and then Kimber 8TC from there to the speakers. I have a pair of Morrow MA1's from the amps to the pre (great IC's at any price) and a Transparent Music Link + IC's from the CDP to the Pre.
Music Preferences
Pretty much everything is game except Rap, Hip Hop.
Room Description
Nothing fancy, a square room that I have strategically placed furniture to absorb the 1st reflections.
Acoustic Treatment
I have treated the front walls with acoustic foam, the back walls with blackout drapes.
Listening Impressions
Now that I've positioned the 2.5's properly (if there is such a thing), the soundstage is large and the sweetspot big enough for 2 people. There are no walls, just beautiful music.
Media Storage
Haven't gone to a Server yet, will get there in due time.
