Great system.
The Audio Logic 24MXL Dac is one of my favorite sounds.
That Dac sounds really smooth.
I heard the Reimer River GS speakers at the 2007 Stereophile show on Cary equipment.
The bass was really good and the mids were nice on the River GS speakers.
But i really loved that Hi Vi Isodynamic Ribbon Tweeter.
That tweeter sounded really silky on the River GS speakers.

thanks for the concern about the shelves (But a positive comment would be nice too) . They're not really on the verge of collapsing. When my ship comes in I can re do the shelves with thicker wood or some other material, but the house came with this indented space and that's where the stereo fits.

Nice digs you have there! I have never heard the Riemer's and am always curious, hopefully one day I will get the chance. That hide-away cabinet is a sweet idea.

Yes, it's a shame to stuff all that expensive equipment inside that massive entertainment center.

System edited: System addition--Sonic Frontier Line 3 upgraded to SE. This upgrade had an even greater effect than I'd hoped. More detailed open and airy sound, soundstage more defined and midrange really sings!!

Hi Gary, Nice pics of the system, looking good. The Reimers do match the wood wall system well, nice work Rick Reimer! Glad I could help you with these speakers. enjoy the music! Thanks, Neil

a front projection system is an lcd/dlp/crt projector with a drop down or fixed projection screen. In your situation you would be best served by a drop down screen in order to still have access to the electronics behind the doors. AVSForum.com is kind of like the audiogon for video stuff most questions can be answered there...I don't know enough about them.

thanks for the info on the HSU...I'll probably look into getting one down the road.

Ellery,

thanks for the feedback. I know pretty little about video, what's a front projection system and what does it consist of? I would highly recommend the HSU, they have upgraded the model,btw. I had used it for both music and HT but now only for HT, It's really hard to get a good integration between fairly full range speakers and a sub for two channel music, especially as I just use the LFE channel. So instead of listening to music I found myself fussing with the subwoofer instead. Also, my Reimers go deeper than my old Thiel 2.2's.The Hsu is fine for HT use. Also their customer support was great. When I bought it I faxed a picture of my room layout so I could be advised as to where to place the sub. Dr. Hsu called me up himself to discuss it. I thought that was pretty cool. I may upgrade to the VTF-3 as my room's pretty big and I don't want to miss any of the low end rumble.

I like your system...nice & clean...I like the recessed t.v. especially...then all you need is a front projection system for movies at night which can be had found dirt cheap these days...one is on my short list.

I have been considering changing out my sub on my *far* more modest 2.1 system and one that was recommended to me was the VTF-2 that you are using...do you feel that I would be making the right choice seeing that you are using it with much nicer gear?

thanks for sharing
