Beautiful room--my compliments.  The green glass effect on the top shelf of your rack is a really nifty bit of subtle drama.

Thanks for the nice comments. The speaker cables are both the same length, 2 meters each. The interconnects however are 5 meters and they to are the same length. If you have your system posted tell how to find it, I’d love to see it.

Hello, Beautiful System!!!
I have a very similar room and equipment  arrangement; So, are your speaker cables the same length?
Thanks! Ken

Nice set-up!  I love those speakers.  I will have them someday, even if I have to sell a secondary body part.  I love Analysis Plus as well!  I have some Solo Crystal Oval 8 speaker cables and will be getting the rca’s soon as well!

Congrats though on the fantastic set-up!  Beautiful!!

Thanks. That’s the nice thing about being retired, more time to listen and play more golf.

Great setup and what a wonderful room.  I think I'd find myself there in the morning with a cup of coffee and forget to go to work....

Thanks for your nice comments. My room is 19’x12’ with 8’ ceilings. There is also a space on either side of the fireplace that had book shelves I removed. Putting traps in that area helped tame the booming bass caused by sound reflecting in the corners.  I also placed a diffuser in front of the glass fireplace doors. I found traps and diffusion to help more than anything not to mention I think the look pretty cool.

That's an excellent looking room.  Each time I take a peek, I am drawn to different details of the set up, equipment, and room treatments.  What are the room dimensions?  Thanks.

Thanks. I’m really happy with the sound. As a matter of fact I’m sitting listening right now. Hope you’re doing the same.

Beautiful room and great selection of gear.   I bet it sounds sublime!

Thanks for the nice comments. Ive been very happy with the Mac amps but getting the Pearl’s with the soft dome tweeters made the biggest difference in my system. When I sit down now I’m usually listening for several hours. The Symposium make a noticeable difference under the turntable and the DAC but more so under the turntable.

Very impressive in every respect. I'll bet the Mac's control your Pearl3's w/ a nice tight grip and warming sound. I like your choice to use the Symposium base isolating your TT from the glass shelf. Finally your room has the comfort and relaxation to make listing a real pleasure. Thanks so much for sharing.
