Simple system

[Covenanter]

[face="Calibri"]This is my new system after many years without anything
decent. I mainly listen to classical
music, especially 15[/face]th/16th century polyphony.

Photos please! (You willy waggler )

 

[Covenanter]

I'll take some pics but it's a very small willy (in hifi terms).

Chris

 

[Covenanter]

Here it is! Well I would post a pic if the software would let me!

I must be dim.

[Covenanter]

So anyone want to tell me how to point at a file on my computer? Rubbish CB software!

You need to put you photo's on flick-r or similer, i copy & paste but other forum members do it differently.

 

[BenLaw]

Upload photo to Flickr, photobucket or similar. Copy link that ends in .jpg. When posting here, click the tree icon and paste the link into the box that appears. Bingo, voila and hey presto.

 

[RobinKidderminster]

I find photobucket easiest

1st attempt!

 

[Covenanter]

A bit of a faff but I got there! As you can see the room is wider than it is deep and is currently being reorganised. There will be two more display cabinets in due course (I collect art deco china ) and the sideboard at the left will be relocated elsewhere.

Chris

PS I used a wide-angle lens for the picture, hence the slight curvature.

 

[MajorFubar]

doesn't all the china vibrate with your music on?

 

[Covenanter]

No it doesn't but I do! :rofl:

Looks really classy.

Also what's your surround set up, I'd definitely get rid of the fronts and use the big Kefs. You may not even worry about a centre.

It's a Sony STR-DB895D (I had to get down on hands and knees to see that!) that I got when I moved myself and my business to Birmingham. I was too busy to spend any time investigating so I just went into a Sony-Centre and bought the tv and system in about 15 minutes flat. Actually I think it sounds pretty good for film but it doesn't cut the mustard for music. I may integrate it all as you suggest in due course.

I missed these pictures the first time round.

Nice setup. 8)

 

[jaxwired]

Very nice. I especially like the outriggers.

 

[Covenanter]

Now upgraded to Kef R700s with Marantz PM8500/SA8500. Still simple but more expensive!

Chris

PS And much better!

 

[BenLaw]

Pics please!

 

[Covenanter]

To follow once I've got the room sorted.

Hiya Chris. I'd be very interested to know what differences you detect between the 6004 and 8005 amps?

It's ok, take your time....

 

[Freddy58]

A good job I didn't hold my breath eh?
