Only real change in 2015 was with the speakers, my Rega R9s were out on long term loan so I played around with a few speakers (Kord Tornado, Tannoy Stirling HE) but settled on some cheap Vandersteens, very very happy with them.
Vandersteen make very nice speakers. The local hi-fi shop carries them, and I'm always impressed when I drop in for a listen.
 
Many thanks Gary.

Old houses are much rarer here in Sydney so I was delighted to find this one.

I'm originally from Brighton so I miss the UK architecture.


Scott - looks like a wood suspended floor you have there. any probs with vibration and your LP12? Have you considered a wall mount?

Beautiful room :)
 
System pics as of 16 December

Roon and tidal to a Squeezebox touch in the digital domain , minidsp dirac DDRC 22 room correction to Devialet Spdif .. Munsdorf silver ribbon speaker cables

Fully treated 8m x 6m dedicated room , 2 x SVS sb13 ultra subs to smooth room response .. I use a meridian 568.2 to control all of them. The whole room is fed by a 5kva pure sine wave converter running off 6 x 200ah batteries

The walls of the room are acoustic panels on battens with uthermo behind , the ceiling is more the same , but solid , not slotted and pierced like the walls. The ceilings have "faux rock" diffusion .. fully configurable listening chair.

Changes planned for this year are to change the doors to the room to proper acoustic doors , a new decent touchscreen tablet to control the whole system , 2 more SVS subs and if I can afford it , another Devialet to make it a dual monoblock system.

What I wouldn't give to chill in that chair and use that ashtray.

There is some beautiful rooms and fantastic systems posted in this thread.

Here's mine for the next few months at least. The speakers should be going to their new owner next month to be replaced with something low cost for the interim until a 4 way active, TAD based system moves in :)

With your own system not looking too shabby either! Love your huge Adams and that fab, brass Kuzma.
