This will be the wall behind me now. A lot closer to the Wine Cellar!!

It looks like audiophile nirvana, where the system just disappears!

You got to ask yourself when it's time to buy a custom Magliner handtruck...

Looking forward to see how the bass integration goes, as I know you won't be able to rest until it's right.

Wow.. nice studio. I thought you were using the Wilson Audio Alexia in your studio. Do you use the Revels now?

Wow.... that looks awesome. I can just imagine the Alexx in that space. What are the dimensions of the room? Any treatments?

I would love to come visit sometime and listen to some tunes. It would probably give me a data point as I am thinking of auditioning the Sasha II for my living room system.

Would love to have you visit. There are 4-5 audiophiles in the PNW loop that folks visit.

Bruce,

The PNW is one of the most beautiful regions on the entire planet, let alone the US. I will even sheepishly admit to buying up much photo-realistic PNW scenery back in days gone by when I had more time and ability on my hands to play with flight simulators! Whilst my health would never realistically permit any travel these days I am nevertheless thrilled that forums such as these can still bring yours (and other people's experiences) close to home so to speak. It is abundantly obvious that the combination of your listening room, gear and above all else your considerable knowledge and extensive experience would make for one very mean and highly entertaining PNW audiophile jamming session. I would have loved to hear what my classical vinyl transcriptions sounded like in your room. I spend all my attention on my workstation and my transfers to the point of absolutely ridiculous obsessiveness but sadly will probably never really own the calibre of actual reproduction gear in a tailored listening environment so as to really hear the fruits of my efforts. Couple that with both of our obvious obsessions with high performance automobiles and I think we would actually have far too much in common!!

Exciting Bruce! What do you plan to do to expedite the burn in process of the Alexx? I bet you're just dying to get to work with them. Their height looks perfect for your mastering suite.

After about a week of listening and futzing around with the controls, I think I have found the final resting place for the subs. Now comes the critical listening part with the crossover points and levels. I will have to say I don't know why I didn't do this much sooner........
