We have seen the fronts and back, but where is the gear placed?
It all runs from an Imod and a Nuforce Icon that sit in my front right pocket.
Actually, the front of the room has a McCormack DNA-500 (main Revelations amp) and a McCormack DNA-1 Deluxe (center channel Continuum amp). They are stacked via Adona rack, behind the center channel. Bob was nice enough to produce those speaker stands as part of the original quote, but I'll likely have someone like Sound Anchors build a 4 post stand that has enough room underneath, between the posts, to house the Mundorf crossover, that currently sits aside the DNA-500 and is in the way of everything back there.
The right side wall is where the source equipment, and the movie surround amps sit. I have one stack of audio equipment that sits on the right wall, just in front of the listening position (Rega tt, Modwright Transporter, Modwright PS 36.5, Modwright LS 36.5, Audience Adept Response AR12 power conditioner, ps for Rega, Dynavector P75 phono pre) and one stack for mainly video (Onkyo 885 processor, Samsung Blu-Ray, Oppo 980 DVD, Velodyne SMS-1 sub EQ, Anthem PVA5 amp) connected via a 2 meter HT bypass set of cables. Bluejean HDMI runs from that stack to the ceiling mounted DLP pj. My music surround amp (currently Rotel RB-991, soon to be McCormack DNA-250) sits behind the rear sofa, on an Adona amp stand, against the back wall and is connected via 4M BlueJean XLR's to the processor.
This pic shows audio and video stacks. It also shows the patched area where HDMI cabling was run from ceiling mounted DLP pj to main equipment area.
In next month or so the walls will be dark gray, the ceiling and sloped areas will be black, and the carpet will be a gray/black pattern (carpet ordered). The area behind the main listening seat row will be raised on an 8 inch riser, even with the foyer entrance (where I stood to take this shot). That area includes the sofa, sofa table, video equipment stack and Continuum surround speakers.
