Also, access ports must be cut into the floor to conceal all cables to and from the monoblocks, speakers and TT (and its PSU and phono stage, while will be mounted out of view, on the left). Stunning. But not sure which is more stunning - the view outside or the MC etc. setup inside.

H Posted June 7 Popular Post Share Posted June 7 12 hours ago, Confused said: This is a very impressive install, the way you have the TV hidden behind sliding acoustic panels is particularly neat. Out of curiosity, may I ask what the overall room dimensions are? Photographs can be quite deceptive, but this does look like an impressively large room. The size is 16w x21L x10h in feet. There is a few rolls of 2 LB per sq feet MLV as well it is sandwiched between the wood. a lot of vibration control as well. The Computer Audiophile and AudioDoctor 1 1 Link to comment

I heard the Andra Viginti some years ago in Munich and they were superb. . I completely agree. But on the other hand it is fun to own a speaker that nobody knows. Do a Google search for a review on them and you will find zero results. These specific “Eggies” Savoys were used in (and part of) the Wisseloord mastering studios in The Netherlands for a reason. And yes, I hadn’t heard of EgglestonWorks before when auditioning them for the first time. I was totally shocked by their unparalleled ease of presentation and grandness in soundstage. They bring the exact opposite of digititus. It is one of those loudspeakers that do everything ‘just right’ without exaggerating / emphasizing anything resulting in true life like sound bringing endless listening sessions. It is always a fun experience when people come over and are overwhelmed about what these hideous coffins can do. Over time I have learned to appreciate their esthetics though 😁.

MasterClock by AfterDark for Merging NADAC., LPS Zero Zone. All cables are assembled. Custom made rack. I bet 99.99% will hear some of the component names for the first time including Speakers (SoundKaos). But if you have small room like mine (11 x 10 feet) this is as high end as you can get. If you want to know how does it sound, I have posted long term ownership review here, have a look at it & provide feedback if you want to.

tgb Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Hi, the thread title is great => "Show us your equipment / kit !" but... I've got a active speakers setup, thus with my 2.1 setup => I don't care about my setup because I'm looking / hearing the music... and don't look at my gears because... useless ! music first ! :-) DuckToller 1 2.1 "pro" setup => Dynaudio Core59 (AES in + wordclock in / Core59 cut @ 80Hz) + sub Dynaudio 18s ("pro" means : only SQ matters, like in any recording studio all over the world ; let's do like these studio to get the best SQ :-) as simple as that !) SQ is improved from digital chain electronic tweak => passive daddy's setup is really dead :-) Link to comment
