Ny Gallo Reference Stradas with the new Virtue Tube Buffered Sensation amp. This is a giant killer of a system, very detailed and musical.

That line array setup is like a lightshow.  It looks like a specialized display at a hi-fi dealer.  It's a modern and hypnotic setup to look at while you listen.  Very sleek, and the back wall enhances it all.

Here's my usual dimmed down room for listening...Jeff Hedback of HdAcoustics did the design based on ideas we came up with...the room sounds as great as it looks...again, you're very kind and thanks!  :thumb:

I had a dream about that setup last night.  Not even considering sound quality...the arrangement, lighting, and atmosphere are really inviting.  It's like you know you are stepping into a listening environment and it's it's own self-contained world.  It's conducive to enjoying a "whole person" listening/sensory experience.

I agree, the design of the listening room is beautiful.
Lots of really nice equipment in this thread.

The song towers look like my kind of speaker.  Nice veneer(s), well regarded performance, good parts, and a price that doesn't even amount to what some folks spend on wire.

I use a set of British Audio Note AN-E speakers with my  Canadian Coincident Frankenstein S.E.T. 300B driven, 9 watt output amplifiers, as these speakers have a sensitivity of 95dB. They are a match made in heaven for all types of music, including large orchestral pieces.
