Room Comments/Treatments: It's a dorm room for the time being...I have my entire life crammed in here, including a kitchen, desk area, couch, bed, av area, and closet...theres about a 10 square foot area of exposed floor..it sucks...but ill be moving soon
Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections): All, but mainly Acid Jazz, Techno, and Rock
System Goals/Comments: To have a great sounding, versatile system in my relatively budget pricerance
System Strengths: Lower cost (I managed to get my $1200list price reciever for $650 through SERIOUS haggling) I spent about $1500 for everything
System Weaknesses: Room Sucks, not enougth space to properly position everything, all teh cables are intertwined with all the other cables from my lights, computer, phone, tv, everthing else....ultra RF interferience, equiptment rack consists of 4 cans of corn supporting the cd player above the reciever, so the reciever doesnt overheat. Since everything i own is in this one room, alot of dust accumulates...i have to wipe downt my equipement everday...it sucks. Email me if you wanna see a picture of my ghetto-fabulous setup
Video/HT System: Integrated
TV/Projector: Daewoo 1990 21" mono POS
Processor/Receiver/Amplifiers: I use my VCR (JVC HR-A57U) as the tuner for tv, since it has stereo sound
Speakers (Center, Surrounds, Sub): Same as above... Paradigm Monitor 5's
Sources (DVD/VCR): Vcr-JVC HR-A57U

DCD-Currently my POS compaq laptop computer...soon to buy a real dvd player
