When I moved into my house 4 years, the owner had left a homemade table he had created out of a door. His wife used it to make crafts. I adopted it as my stereo rack.

It was an eyesore and took up almost the entire back wall.

I recently found a used Salamander threaded rack and moved the door to a storage room in the basment. I think it looks a little better.

I just need to stop stacking stuff on the new Cornwalls :nono:

As long as it is in the man-cave, she does not care. What the new rack did allow me to do was buy the Cornwalls. I did not have the proper space before.

What did go up was the KAF - kids accpetance factor. My youngest has more room to play. She and her older sister want me to move the Maggies so they can play behind the Cornwalls :angel:

John,

Its warming to see that you have joined Bolly's School of Audio separation--Little and none between your speakers. Just how does 'mono" sound with a stereo such as yours? :lmao: :lmao:

I always assume Gino is being sarcastic :)

I have about 8 to 10 feet between the speakers. The soundstage is the entire back wall. I am quite happy.

Very nice John. Wish I could get my A7's farther apart. But then I've got close to 800( :no: ) pairs of speakers in the way :D . Cute kid too, I'll send the boys that come to my door down to see you next.

Yes, Epicure 400+

They are not mine. They belong to another AKer in Michigan.
