Post Show Setup

[Yes, still working on the show report. Taking a break here tho…whew!]

We setup the show system back in our living room with a few changes:

* Using a 2 meter Valhalla instead of a 1.5 meter Jorma Prime interconnect which we had borrowed for the show (thanks Dan!).
* Putting the bass towers inside of the main towers.

We wanted a wider soundstage than what we were getting here, in our room which is narrower than the room at the show. As long as we keep the bass towers back far enough, and close enough to the main towers, it shouldn’t mess up the imaging… much. And it doesn’t, at least with the 1/2 hour of modest volume testing we have had time to do so far. Did make the soundstage quite a bit wider 🙂

And, no, before anyone asks, the vacuum cleaner is NOT a secret tweak of ours. Really. It’s not.

We also have, finally!, got the MXR rack and Brinkmann Balance turntable upstairs in the main listening room. Looks awesome there. Seems to sound pretty good too, but, like we said above, we have only just started optimizing this setup.
