| Room Size (LxWxH): | 14.5 x 12.5 x 8 |

| Music Preferences and Comments: | |
| Music Used (Genre/Selections): | vocals / jazz / classical / blues / latin / world music (flamenco, tango, fado, etc. etc.), very limited and selected pop. |
| System Goals/Comments: | To achieve a system with best approximation to real life reproduction. At this point the system is quite good and satisfying. Waiting for the ultimate mono blocks being constructed: 300B (TJ gold pin) completely silver-wired with toroidal silver transformers (custom) |
| System Strengths: | When recording permits: at even low volume this system is quite revealing, transparent, with low-level details and immediate. |
| System Weaknesses: | Sound stage a bit compromised due to room size. |
