Let's See What Makes Your Vinyl Spin!

Beautiful..........I'm a little jealous of your space

It’s a bonus room above the garage 15x16with a nook in the back corner for my standing desk. Pretty optimal for music and projecting, I’m happy to have it!

My main setup is in my Theater room, where I have a small office space in the back. Just updated everything but my Pro-Ject Carbon. Running a pair of Tannoy Revolution XT 8F with a Peachtree nova300. I had a Primaluna integrated in mind, but had to rework the budget, and the Peachtree allows me to save on a DAC and Phono preamp....for now.

I love the new power and dynamics upgrade that this amp/speaker combo gives me. Still breaking in everything, including new cables/interconnects, but I’m having trouble getting to bed at a decent hour because I’m enveloped in great sound. About to upgrade my cart to a Grado Gold and planning to keep my Tidal trial going indefinitely. I may revisit the Primaluna in a couple of years, experiment with Phono stage and upgrade furniture, but for now I’m very happy with my results and love the ease of use with just a couple components.

I love the look of those speakers. I still need to get my ears on some Tannoys. The design makes me curious.

I narrowed down to Tannoy and Dali, then found a damaged box deal on these that sealed the deal. I love the way they deliver vocals, and I find them pretty balanced lows/mids/highs. I’ve read a few people say the low end is too heavy...I will say, I’ve done away with my Klipsch sub, and still have plenty of bass punch!

I have that little vox amp as well, it's really fun!

Rca cables. Or at least that's what I meant. Hope I didn't mess that up in my slightly buzzed excitement!

Forgot how much I love this thread, keep the system pics coming friends

Finally made a decision! It took so long to pick new speakers but I love these.

I went from aging KEF iQ10 which sounded great but wanted a "bigger sound". Please excuse the mismatched speaker stands. I painted one to see if I would like it

That's a lovely setup, the white stands look great!

Usually keep the lights down low but this is the view from the sweet spot. There is a couple smaller surround speakers and additional wall panels for early reflections not shown. Don’t use the sub stashed back in the corner. Trying to round up a couple 1x4 IKEA units for each side.

New setup. Bigger shelves with spare room for MORE records... Got rid of the TV for now, which makes for a much nicer impression I think. Oh, and now there's room for that Rega Elex R amp I'm possibly upgrading to. The speakers get a bit more room around them, sounds nice so far. And the wife is happy.

Slight changes to my setup.

Replaced the Rega Brio-R with its older sibling Elex-R.

Put an Ikea Aptitlig chopping board on some small rubber feet and put the TT on top, replacing Sorbothane feet. Much nicer presentation than straight onto the Sorbothanes.
