Hey, I really like this, man. I want to build a table like this. Could you give me detailed measurements including the drawer? Thank you and congratulations

My listening room....and soon we will have spring here in NZ and everthing will be green in front of me!

That is just a cool fckng room and deserves to be reposted on the next page. Straight classy with the book case, china display and artwork. That goldish frame reminds me of Beauty and The Beast.

Cool to see another NAD setup, how are the Mad Dogs ?

Nothing fancy, but the whole audio setup was under $500 and for that price I have no complaints!

Cans: MrSpeakers Mad Dog Modded Fostex T50RP
 
Speakers: Boston Acoustics A60
Amp: NAD 7100

Rob, that looks like a most awesome stress reducing environment. Be careful returning to the real world. Do it in small stages like decompressing for Scuba!

I'm glad I found the NAD and it was a steal at $40, especially with a working remote and functioning volume motor. 
 
They're easily the best I've tried so far but I haven't really been anywhere that lets you demo the higher end ($300+) stuff and have been avoiding doing so in case I decide I like something I can't afford a lot more! Very inefficient though so you really need a fairly powerful amp to push them, the NAD has no problem pushing them to ear bleeding levels where my old head amp had to be maxed out before it became uncomfortably loud.

Very kewl!  Tell us more, cartridge, phono preamp?  Good color match with the Sonnett(?).

Grado Sonata from 1998 (I just looked at the receipt).  Still pleasant, but will be replaced soon.
First gen Rega Brio is playing the part of the phono stage at the moment.  Meh, and will be replaced soon.
Bad color match.  Like, not even close.  It's a sad/darker blue, where as the Sonett is a happier/lighter blue.
 
Best part is, I like it a lot!  Been spinning vinyl since the moment I got it.

Wonderful! I was looking at the traveler at my dealers but I had no time to play..

 (Good album choice too!) Wonder if my venerable Grado MF3E+ would do it justice....

What do you think of the speakers? I see they're $135 off.
