Description

This photo was taken from (above) my listening chair.  Sound is acceptable all over the room. This is the quietest room in the house so although the arrangement is a bit strange, being in the bedroom, it's my best option. I am not running the Toslink into the Motu in this photo; just going direct from Google CCA DAC. This system sounds great.  My brother in law has a $100k system and this one is half+ as good to my ears. I have less than $4k into this system.

Nice system but you need some more instruments - I'm struggling with that also!

My man cave system is my favorite as I am the only one controlling what is playing.  Grace DAC - NAD integrated-Ascend Acoustics Sierra II's and a Rythmik F12.  Since I play (mostly) bass I NEED great low end.
