Pictures of your computer rigs! Post them here! - Page 181

oh yeah i forgot about the hanns g.  thats like the only monitor in that price range which makes me kind of weary how well it works.  i might want to pick one of those up.

Nice set up Graz. Well done mate. Hope it brings you a lot of fun and enjoyment.

So far, so good (knock on wood)...haven't had a single problem with any of them, and it's been over a year since I bought them... 

I must say though that having four 28" monitors 2 feet from your face can be a bit overwhelming at first...I really had to crank the brightness down quite a bit.  But once acclimated, anything else feels quite small...one definitely gets spoiled.

Not really computer related, but... I live in downtown Shanghai.  The view out the balcony window (to the left of my desk) at night looks like this:

thats cool in shanghai but id be more impressed from some chinese places and palaces.  as for the 4 28" monitors, yeah id imagine thats pretty huge.  i used my vizio 32" lcd tv as a monitor once and i couldnt stand it so i sold it.  even with the brightness down, the mouse just seemed to take a year to get anywhere and it hurt my eyes.  resolution was horrible, but thats because it was an lcd tv not a computer monitor.  but i couldnt imagine 4 28" monitors.

Wow that view is amazing.  I hope I my future apartment has a view half that breathtaking.

Oh damn Graz, I want to live there, or atleast have such a beautiful city scape from my window. From my window I can see dumpsters and cats digging them, and some huge factory chimneys.

BTW, love the Marantz, they don't make them like that anymore.. and the casing looks very nicely done.

I may look into the pull down screen that you mentioned.  I was always concerned with how it would work with the vaulted ceiling.  

Thanks, I love the case and would never sell it.  Unfortunately, he no longer does any wood working...partially my fault for getting him into photography. 

A couple of my headphone systems (I will have to get a pic of the one in the living room) run off of an iPad (tablet computer) or laptop.  The iPad is fairly flexible as a server or remote.  I can run Plex and stream my iTunes catalog, play the lossless that I have stored on it, use it to stream from the web (Pandora, Pocket Tunes, etc..) or use it as a remote to control iTunes/Airfoil for streaming via an Airport Express that I also have in this setup. 

The Dac_1 also feeds a Denon AVR3300 (I no longer have the Pinnacle stacked speakers in this setup)..  I run 4 NHT SB2s and an NHT Center channel with a small sub:

Next to the chair in the shot above, I have a Super T-amp hooked to a pair of vintage headphones.  It is being fed the output of the Little Dot MKIII:

Mine is attached to a vaulted ceiling, it works fine that way as the screen housing is made to hang from hooks.

Tiger, how does your HD650 sound with the little dot? I was considering jumping into the $800 range for an amp but the MK III seems like a good amp to get me started and experience the whole "work my way up the chain" thing rather than start halfway up already.

Terribly messy, but that's my rig.

Very nice Adams... and the sub sure looks fear-inducing.

Thanks, I wish I have a bigger room though. I already fitted all the bass traps I can fit around the room.
