Description

The pentagonally shaped room works like a charm but, being large, has required lots of amplifying power (12 channels each of which has 200W capacity). I've been in love with electrostic speakers for decades but the full range Sound Labs units are a dream come true.

The syatem is used for audio AND video - I cannot tolerate poor sound. Previously a vinyl addict I'm now a digital convert with all players modded.

Really I'm at the end of the audio road. Might change the projector soon (it has done nearly 12,000 hours) + maybe other video items.

What can I say? WOW. Simply Completely and Absolutely Awesome. Have you played around a bit with the seating position...not to nitpick but aren't the seats a little too far back against the rear wall (bay windows with fantastic view)?

My Bro in law is from Hobart....perhaps I will get around to visiting them one day...beautiful country. Kudos for such a beautiful room/house/setup.
