Very nice room and view by the way. No problem with the windows ? No need for bass traps ?
The speakers are a good 1.5m from the patio doors and they don’t cause any issues.
Bass is under control unless you turn the subs up too far!
Apart from the carpet it looks like a very bare room. A sofa would help (if there isn’t one already) as would curtains. Panels could help too, but can be a bit of a negative aesthetically IMO. Speaker placement as others have said is also important. Also, if the speakers are new and not yet run in I suggest giving them a bit of time before making any decisions. New speakers will typically open up and become fuller sounding after some 50-100 hours of music.
Yes, the speakers are new and still need to be run in. The sofa and curtains will be put up as soon as possible. Then in the room there is a desk and an office chair on the right side that are not visible in the photo. I am a bit hesitant about the panels, I don’t want to start drilling holes in all the walls or gluing stuff. I have to think about it:
Yes I agree your comments about panels Tony.
IMO not a good look for a room
Once you get all your homely stuff in there it no doubt will start to fix some issues
which streamer do you use with your nDAC ?
Exactly. Let the speakers run in and see how it all sounds once they’re run in and the sofa and curtains have been installed. I’m sure it will sound very different, and much better, once that has happened. Any decisions before then would be premature.
The streamer is my Mac. The Toslinkcable from Mac to Dac is laying under the carpet.
Nice how you colour-matched the iMac with the Beatles collection
This is the fault of the company Eton. Last year they had released a shirt collection with Beatles motifs.
The green boxes were too bad to throw away.
I’m a fan of their shirts too. I regret the name, but their shirts are great.
Very pretty curtains for a man cave
Joking aside, looks good. Great place to work!
ps…the were too good…
After all those beautiful and elaborate hi-fi systems, this my simple system. But for me, it’s fine!
- Naim Uniti Atom amplifier/streamer
- Quad Modo 1000 speakers
- Nordost Blue Heaven interlinks and speakercable.
Lovely system, and lovely setting for it!
Are the speakers Aliante’s? Ah no! Thanks for adding that into the post They look like Aliante Stiles!
Looks like they are rebadged Aliante Moda Pininfarina’s. ( and I think there is a typo … its “Moda not Modo”
I have a very similar turntable to to you, Sovereign Mk 4, Conqueror tonearm with Hana Umami Red. Hard to beat.
