Just finished a stint with a Landscape system - not the Daedalus Ulysses. I am very pleased with the development of the Landscape orientation in systems. I have been able to vastly improve the expe...

Zephyr, I have usually placed subs behind the mains, so in many of my pics the subs are not visible. I will likely put some new pics up soon.  I have been experimenting with a much deeper and wider...

Initial exploration with dedicated server already surpasses my best effort with Mac Mini; doubtless the former is history. Moving from disc a few years ago to file playback has reaped continuing mu...

There can be made a case for opting to own multiple amps rather than speakers. I'm getting a wide variety of response with speakers through swapping amps. One of the most obvious is to employ bo...

This is one of the most captivating systems I have seen here for several reasons. Obviously, this is a labor of love, to push the envelope of the small space to the max. You have brainstormed, obvi...

Papermill, yes, the Joule White 3 is pretty special! Frankly, I was wowed when I realized its capacity. And this is the beginning. Give it a year or so and it will be quite improved. No regression,...
