Other (Power Conditioner, Racks etc.): | Plateau DS-5 system rack. Decent surge protection but not really a conditioner. |
Room Comments/Treatments: | Recently moved. Room is not optimum but is better than previous house. |
Music Preferences and Comments: | |
Music Used (Genre/Selections): | Some rock, classical, jazz, new age, folk, bluegrass. I admit it, I'll listen to CD's. There's just too much music available on CD's that will never make it to vinyl. |
System Goals/Comments: | Keep improving over time. Might add a PS Audio power conditioner. Might upgrade TT one of these days. |
System Strengths: | Nice overall range, very detailed and articulate, smooth mid range and highs, accurate if not overwhelming bass. |
System Weaknesses: | My weakness's, not the system. I ruptured my left ear drum 6 months ago so I still have to listen at lower volumes to keep it from ringing. Seems to be getting better with time. |
Video/HT System: Separate | |
TV/Projector: | Sony 51" rear projection, HDTV 16:9 |

Other HT Gear: | Older Magnavox VHS HiFi Charter Cable TV |
Comments on HT System: | Great audio & video. Not in the same league as some, but pretty decent for what little I watch movies. The Sony is really too big for the distance I sit at but the 46" was only $200 less by the time I bought the required stand. |
