Statements but they need some finishing

My tiny listening space is at work. I shoehorned a LePai 2020-A amp and a pair of SA speakers in my cubicle. Amazing sound from such a small package. I play through a Bluetooth adapter from my iPhone.

What kind of office do you work in that allows you to play music out loud in a cubicle? I've never seen that before...

Very nice. I could listen to Jimi there. Love the wall color.

Gosh my main other space is not really very big, it is our living room, more formal area,
with attached open dining, so the music has always been a natural, well, not for years until
recently, kids and life sent the sound system to the basement, (see above)..But here is my
latest addition. Hard to work in Limed Oak, (yellow) woodwork..but the cool factor and
most important, it sounds great, recapped,4 matched flying j 6v6's and Shure sc35c and an RPX
in alt headshell for monos, new idlers and nice supple flocked table is ok..changer is kinda cool..(78s)

I'm in a small cubicle office that appreciates music during the day, just not too much volume. After 5:00, it's a different story.

Nice, relaxing shade of paint on the walls, prominent artwork featuring an electric guitar god, RtiA7's with the perfect footprint, and Lionel was still a member of the group? Lovely, just lovely.

Thank you both! I obsessed over the wall color forever before deciding. I am trying to build an homage to what I envision my late 70's bachelor pad might have been like had I not been only 13 years old at the time

I like the system, well chosen. Love the space as well, the lava lamp really sets it off, but you need a Warriors movie poster.

Very interesting thread. We are in the process of downsizing from a 5 bedroom house to a three bedroom house (retirement pending). I have a handicapped brother who lives with us who gets one bedroom and wife insists the other one be set up for grandchildren. That relegates me to a study that is about 10' X 11'. I'm used to moderately big stuff - Marantz 2325 with Klipsch Fortes and JBL L100's. At this point, I can't make myself consider more modern/smaller speakers. I love the ones I have too much. We have purchased the house and have a couple of months of upgrading to do before moving in, so it remains to be seen how I can make that equipment work in that small room. I will be using this thread to get some ideas. Any advice?

Exactly. I always said I wanted be immersed in my music. It looks like I will finally be there.

I'm counting on it. When I was 16, I had a pair of pretty nice bookshelf speakers and a pair of Koss headphones. I found that lying on the floor with a speaker aimed at each ear about one foot away from my head was even better than the headphones. I may be coming full circle.

I think a small room, close to speakers, can be better than many large rooms. You can hear more of the speaker and less of room acoustics influence. Enjoy.
