Description

Well here it is. My first two channel system. I intended to do this about 10 years ago when I purchased the Hales speakers but for some reason went the HT route. The wife actually likes it too! (or atleast accepts it) :-) It also gave me an excuse to build something!!! The stand was a blast to build and I'm in the process of building speaker stands/platforms of 2" solid Qtr-Swn Sapele to match the speakers and the stand. Overall the system certainly isn't great by audiophile standards but its exceeded my expectations.
