TubeHeadSeth's Theater System
Last Update: October 14, 2006 at 13:19:57 IP Address: 70.194.180.246
Amplifier: Krell Showcase 5
Preamplifier (or None if Integrated): Krell Showcase Pre/pro
Speakers: All Martin Logan- Prodigy, Theater center, Script surrounds and HSU VT3 subwoofer
Sources:
CD Player/DAC: Sony NS755 SACD/DVD player. Also looking to major upgrade. Really not bad for inexpensive HT and occasional music.
Turntable/Phono Stage: Nice old Marantz DD/TT with older Ortofon. Threshold phono stage.
Other Source(s): Comcast Digital Music Service
Other Accessories/Room/Misc.:
Speaker Cables/Interconnects: Currently all high-end Monster (I know!)- will be tweaking/auditioning heavily in the near future. (Cabling was free with system) Lots of research tobe done this winter!
Other (Power Conditioner, Racks etc.): Monster AVS 2000 voltage regulator (noisy)

Monster 5200 conditioner- system

Monster 2600 conditioner- for projector only

Tweaks: cable floor isolators
Room Size (LxWxH): 16' x 23' x 8'
Room Comments/Treatments: None now. Needs lots.
Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections): Jazz, 60's, 70's, 80's, electronica, ambient
System Goals/Comments: Just to have a kick-ass, wall of sound theater surround system
System Strengths: Prodigy's present such an amazing front soundstage, other speakers reinforce this effect very well. Jaw-dropping performance. Pod racer or Apocalypse Now heli-attack scenes are life-altering. (just kidding) Not bad on music either. See two other dedicated music systems- 1)Hi-power class A and 2)low-power class A/tube amp. First time visitors immediately say 'I want one of these!'
System Weaknesses: Room has no acoustic planning yet. Way too bright and bouncy.
Video/HT System: Integrated
TV/Projector: Sharp XV9000U DLP/HDTV Projector on high-gain Da-Lite 120'screen
Processor/Receiver/Amplifiers: see above
Speakers (Center, Surrounds, Sub): see above
Comments on HT System: This projector is just such a pleasure, especially on an HDTV signal. It just is so much fun to get together with friends to see sporting events and movies. 'Sunday at the movies at Seth's,' with cartoons for the kids before.
