Room Size (LxWxH): 28 x 16 x 8
Room Comments/Treatments: Wierd layout with doors and windows, and the fireplace.
Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections): Acoustic
System Goals/Comments: Reference sound on a budget
System Strengths: Almost there. Super fast, has the ability to plat to reference levels (100db+) with no audible distortion. Also sounds great in 2 channel.
System Weaknesses: Still needs power conditioning. I think I am going to try Richard Gray's Power Co.
Video/HT System: Integrated
TV/Projector: Mitsubishi 55'
Processor/Receiver/Amplifiers: Golden Theater GTA-1 & GTX-1
Speakers (Center, Surrounds, Sub): Legacy Harmony mains, M&K S100btv center, Carver surrounds, Very heavily modified Carver sub, KEF Ref30 sub, Custom passive sub.
Sources (DVD/VCR): Zenith DVD, RCA HDTV satellite.
Other HT Gear: ZU cables for mains and power, Audioquest crystal for center, DIY for rears, MIT, Phoenix, & Transparent IC's & digital cables
Comments on HT System: I've got about 7 grand in this thing, and I think you have have to spend about 20 more to get any appreciably better sound. I have bought most of this between Audiogon & Ebay. For example, Legacy Harmony's, NIB for $820 shipped. Golden Theater combo for $1600. You get the idea. It would have cost a LOT more retail.
