May be a little off-topic - but I haven't posted in a while as I've been sucked into a new 2-channel system for about a month and a half. Since my family and I moved out to a house in the burbs, building a man cave in the basement has always been in the back of my mind - and with more working from home, it's become my office too (though I have to share it with the kids sometimes as evidenced by the toys next to the speakers.) It seems to have started with finalizing my headphone setup - and ended with Martin Logan Expression 13As. I haven't found anything that kills upgraditis like a good 2-channel system - but then again, I also completely upgraded my headphone system prior (adding a Wa33 Elite, Lumin U1, PS Audio P12, and LCD 5). Good news: digital front end I spent all that money on works great with the speakers. My Chord Dave is right under the Wa33 in the first picture, and I am running 25 ft of balanced cable, under the carpet, to the amp next to the speakers. It may be new toy syndrome, as I've only had them for 5 or 6 weeks - but this is my best audio purchase I've ever made, right there with the Wa33. Now just using a Krell loaner and waiting on my Pass Amp, waiting for an upgraded amp stand (that will fit the Pass when it comes.) Also considering replacing my Pangea stand with the Wa33 for a higher end stand. Finally, a higher quality desk would make this room pop (I'm 42 years old and still using a gamer desk - though I make no apologies
. That said, it's come a long way and open to any suggestions - as this is going to be my man cave for quite some time.
Looks really good! Congrats!
