CD Player/DAC:	Computer: SB Live 5.1 digital out
Other Accessories/Room/Misc.:
Speaker Cables/Interconnects:	Home Depot 'HD 14'. Cheap digital interconnect.
Room Size (LxWxH):	15' x 10' x 8'
Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections):	Ambient, Goa trance, dronology, glitch, IDM, traditional drumming etc.. Anything with a beat or electronic or experimental.
System Goals/Comments:	Goals: 2-channel Transparency and holographic imaging. Would like to be full range some day. My philosophy with this system is: To spend 10% and get 90% as good, ie, my amp cost $380. To do 10% better would cost $3800
System Strengths:	Tonal neutrality and reveiling nature. Wall of sound. Hard to do better than this for $1200
System Weaknesses:	Limited room/poor placement in a small space means a small 'sweet spot' Usable bass only to 30hz.
Video/HT System: None
