My cheap Audiophile stereo

I have it setup 9 feet or so diagonally from each side. So in a sense it is a triangle.

Yea the new room will be bigger and I want the speakers place farther away because I may do a three channel setup with a surround processor. I will be building up some new speakers that have a tweeter and mid-range drivers on the back as well as the front of course. Like the EOSONE RSF-1000's. but they will have a completely separate cabinets from the bass drivers. I have been fond of the three channel audiophile setups that have been popular in HI-FI stores.

Any one have any experience with the three channel setups?

This is my mate Giles ,studio,you should see some of his stuff

:shock: I think the speakers come in at £12000 each and they've got a few
He started off with a small studio in a spare bedroom
Man's doing well


Listening to any music at his place is incredible


I paid him a visit a few months or six ago.
The place is full of bikes too ,seems they all love cycling too

seeing all this kit makes me miss my first and best set up
mix of kenwood cd/yamaha eq/denon amp/technics turntables running cerwin vega mini towers (the old 12 inch bass versions)
used to love that stereo but moving into a bedsit made it somewhat impractical (landlord threatened to kick me out every time i even turned it on :cry: )
still we move on :cry: :cry:

My setups:

Upstairs:

NAD 7220 Int Amp (underrated @ 20 WPC)
Dual 1225 Turntable w/ Grado MM cartridge (a cheaper one, still sounds gr
Technics CD Player
Paradigm Titan speakers on 30" stands

I'm very happy for the $450 spent putting it together. (The amp and table were free gifts.)

Downstairs:

Yamaha RX-V650 HT Receiver (basic... 105 WPC, probably more like 40 in real life!)
Some kind of Yamaha DVD player
Infinity Beta 50 Speakers
Mirage OM-C3 Center Channel
Garbage old tower rear speakers
Sansui FRX-____ speakers for the workspace on Channel B

To be honest, the old cast-off NAD/Paradigm setup upstairs sounds about as good as the more modern system downstairs! It's great to find stuff $100/200 at a time. '80s/'90s stereo gear is a bargain.

I'll post pics a little later on...
