    Nice set up. Organization is key! Before itunes there was an art to keeping music organized.

    AK Design Collaborative - Insignia-Class Economy Speakers (a.k.a Indignia)

    I had some scraps of trim wood lying around, I cut and framed them for each speaker. I used some grille cloth that I had left over form another project, It was from parts express. A few minutes with the hot glue gun and they were ready to go.

    Let's see your unique Stereo Cabinets and Entertainment Centers!

    You know I made it this winter and put it in place in the living room thinking I would stain and finish it in the summer but the longer it sits here the more I like the natural wood. I think I may just leave it the way it is. I almost want to stencil the crate number form Raiders of the Lost Ark...

    AK Design Collaborative - Insignia-Class Economy Speakers (a.k.a Indignia)

    This is a pic from another angle. You can see that the finish came out shiny but I think I should have sanded the paint with a higher grit sand paper than 1000 before applying the polyurethane. You can still see texture in the paint and it makes the finish look kind of hazy. Next time it will be...

    The "Good Enough" Gear Threshold, Where Is Yours?

    Full L acoustics K1 line array with about 40 sb28s turned up so loud you could hear it on the moon, even though that's physically not possible. The real question is what should be the opening track? I vote Rage - killing in the name - there is something about that song that just begs to be...

    AK Design Collaborative - Insignia-Class Economy Speakers (a.k.a Indignia)

    I joined the club I made myself a pair and I could not be happier. They are my computer speakers but since I spend most of my waking hours sitting in front of the damn thing, I figured I should have a nice pair of speakers. I decided to give them the piano black treatment, they don't look bad...

    Let's see your unique Stereo Cabinets and Entertainment Centers!

    Living room This is my living room. I built the entertainment center and the chest. I don't care for visible cables so I wanted to hide all of that within the entertainment center. I also reworked the speakers. They used to be technics but the only thing left from the original speakers is the...

    Vinyl to digital conversion in Denver

    Hello, I am hoping to find someone in the greater Denver area that may be interested in doing some digital conversions of vinyl. I have some vinyl that I would like to convert and perhaps you do too. I have a nice recording set up: MOTU 192k PC interface, UREI 1620 phono preamps (the original...

    Need a good usb DAC to power V6s off macbook pro

    It's too bad they did not make the sample rate up go to 192kHz as they do on their other products. I still got one, I carry it in my audio toolbox for work and it's so sweet. The audio calibration tools are worth the price alone. I have to admit I'm more midfi than hifi, I cant afford hifi.

    Opinions on Technics?

    Thanks, I meant my post was off topic since it was not about Technics. I have the same speakers and use a crown micro tech 202 to power them. They sounded good but I blew the highs due to some clipping and need to get new diaphragms for them. What do you think about the 4412s are they worth...

    Concert Prices.. .

    I used ticketmaster to get tickets for Metallica a few years back. They signed me up for some obscure coupon service that deducted twenty dollars a month from my bank account. They never sent me any coupons or any information about the service. I noticed the reoccurring charge after three months...

    Zimbo, that looks like a great place to catch some tunes, the room has a great vibe and I'm sure it has a great sound to go with it.

    Hooking up Computer to Reciever

    I have a bit of experience with this.
