you used this! how cool is that!I love that amp. I had it in my system for a couple months while George was playing with class D amps. It is wonderful sounding but he didn't want to part whit it back then.
Thank you! We were starting to measure out how large of a TV we wanted to get since the room is fairly large, and when we were looking at prices it dawned on us that we don't actually need a TV in the living room. We still have one in the bedroom, and that gets daily use in the evening, but It's definitely encouraged less TV time each day and falling asleep earlier. And the living room has way more room for guests.Beautiful room, and nice photography too.
Good on you for 1) going without the TV screen.
The room can be about reading, relaxing conversation, music.
And 2) daring to paint the room an intense, dark color.
So many people are afraid to do that, but with the right lighting it's quite dramatic.
And...conducive to everything I mentioned in #1. Well done.
Alright here is my room. This is my first attempt producing photos of any quality... You guys like large format, right?

No thread for them. What would you like to know?Great job Asilker! Looks really good.
Is there a thread about the Altecs? I need to know more.
I for one totally agree with you priorities. Room and big picture first, techno perfection secondary.
Thanks folks, I appreciate the encouragement.

They are Altec 604 168x drivers with the diaphragms replaced so they all run at 8ohms. They are the classic altec 604 but at the very end of production so they have slightly different impedence curves and higher power handling (but not much).What model? Did you build or refinish them?
You can find me here: 2032 W Devon Ave, Chicago, IL 60659awesome, we need your address!
Just FYI the address is for an Indian food restaurant in my neighborhood I would love to hang out if you are up here, but my home address is still not up on a public forumThanks, I rarely get that far North but you never know.
I wish I had more space, and my wife is probably glad I don't.
Beautiful, enjoy, love the speakers.
Nice looking - except what exactly is the purpose for the chair and ottoman between and facing away from the speakers?
Good idea. I'm in the area right now, in fact...but I'm not into party crashing.Just FYI the address is for an Indian food restaurant in my neighborhood I would love to hang out if you are up here, but my home address is still not up on a public forum
