The Listening Room Reality

Here are around sixty to seventy photos documenting the build of my listening room.

The room is 38.5 m² in size, with a dedicated listening area defined by floor-to-ceiling acoustic absorbers.

# The passive acoustic treatment consists of:

  • 14–15 m³ of absorptive material !!! (Caruso Iso Bond)
  • 22 × Vicoustic Cinema Round Premium panels
  • 9 × Vicoustic Multifuser Wood panels

# The active acoustic treatment consists of:

  • 4 × PSI AVAA C20 active bass traps

A huge amount of work :sweat_smile:
But the result exceeds my expectations.

I’d even go so far as to say that the room is almost out of the equation.

# The HiFi system is as follows:

  • Taiko Extreme Router
    Taiko Extreme Switch
    Taiko Extreme DC Power Distributor

  • Taiko Olympus
    Taiko Olympus I/O XDMI (DAC)

  • Preamp: Soulution 727
    Power amp: Soulution 717

  • Speakers: Magico M2

  • Cables: Nordost Valhalla 2, full loom

But the most important element is, of course, the listening room itself.

I’ve heard roughly the same system in an untreated room… and the difference is so vast it’s almost impossible to put into words.
