| Preamplifier (or None if Integrated): | none |
| Speakers: | ProAc Response 2.5 84 dB sens. |
| Sources: | |
| CD Player/DAC: | Sony SCD-777ES |
| Turntable/Phono Stage: | The TT and LPs are stacked away bacause of lack or space. It makes me cry every time I look att the boxes of some 1k LPs. |
| Other Source(s): | Denon RDS Tuner. Listen to this maybe an hour a week, no more. |
| Other Accessories/Room/Misc.: | |
| Speaker Cables/Interconnects: | Kimber 4/8TC, HT Pro-Silway MkII |
| Other (Power Conditioner, Racks etc.): | Soundstyle rack. It looks nice and is very stable, but I wish the shelves were adjustable. |
| Tweaks: | Tweaks? I hate tweaking! Which is why I don't use tubed gear with the ProAcs... |
| Room Size (LxWxH): | 4.7m x 4.1m x 2.7m |
| Room Comments/Treatments: | Almost square! What can I say...sucks. Someday I'm gonna build some of Risch's tube traps. I suffer from the lazy man's syndrome so who knows when that will happen :) Due to the small size of the apartment, the listening room is just packed with books and stuff, which works out pretty well, he he. |
| Music Preferences and Comments: | |
| Music Used (Genre/Selections): | Hmmm...everything except hip-hop, techno, rap, whining country, and opera. Primarily blues and jazz though. |
| System Goals/Comments: | The best compromise I can get between detail, soundstage and tonality |
| System Strengths: | Great detail and soundstage width. Low mids and upwards are excellent. |
| System Weaknesses: | Boomy bass, soundstage depth. Not enough space for proper distance between speakers and rear wall. Also, a 32" widescreen TV sits slightly behind and between the speakers. I know, not very good but its all a compromise. |

| TV/Projector: | JVC 32" Widescreen TV |
