System Pics 2023

[Allan Probin]

It reminded me of the room in the closing scenes of 2001 A Space Oddysey

(another Stanley Kubrick film, maybe there’s a connection)

 

[hifi-dog]

That looks cozy - but for some reason got me thinking of the Overlook Hotel..

‘All work and no play makes Jack a very dull boy’ .., one of my favourite films

And to think that Stephen King did not appreciate it.

Thank you for all the kind words and movie comparisons lol. This room was a pet project for the Wife and I. We have dubbed it simply as “The Library”. It’s a great place to escape into the music with a scotch in hand. We got our decor inspiration mostly from the Royal York Hotel in Toronto. The rest of the home has a nod to that style throughout. Although we’re youngish, 40’s, I guess we have older souls.

Beuàrtiful room x x.

 

[Moonbuggy]

Jacob Rees-Mogs listening room would have a wind up Grammaphone (with a butler to do the winding up of course).

And the wet nanny as DJ / selector.

No disrespect to the listening room / owner.

 

[Tarzan]

They can be upgraded as well
I got mine from Phil Hifinut (great fella)and they have been highly nodded
I went to listen to them for a friend,who 2as in two minds about buying a pair and they were that good,I brought them home
Absolutely fantastic things

Do tell us more about The Impulse's Sir!

Got a pair of H6's in the lounge system and they sound blooming good....but not so good in my 21' x 11' den.

 

[Tarzan]

That’s a very dramatic room.

Half expecting Baldrick and Blackadder to walk in... seriously that is a great room!

 

[Colin L]

More likely expecting these guys to walk in

Leaving aside the decor ,which is entirely a matter of personal taste, I could not sit in a chair in a room and facing a pair of speakers and nothing else...no view, no window. Couldn't do it.

Horses for courses and all that.

Lovely room and system.

I concur - very classy and very refined and restrained hifi system. Bravo!

 

[jayhawksean]

Not quite as hifi as tons of the rooms I've seen, but I am only a few months into my journey. ;-)

I agree

@canyelles That view looks familiar - Brighton seafront, down towards Hove? (I was a student there back in the late 80s).

Absolutely correct. The Peace Statue, which marks the Brighton/Hove boundary, is just to the right but out of view.

 

[Bjork67]

What a view sat there tunes on with a 99.

 

[Mike Hughes]

I agree

Ooh look, Rhyl

 

[flapland]

Ooh look, Rhyl

Not enough multi-million pound yachts just off the coast for it to be Rhyl.

They have multi-million pound yachts in Rhyl? Seriously? When i used to go there it was the faint whiff decaying caravan and the Rhyl Sun Centre that marked it out as the working class weekend break of choice.

So are you in Brighton.........or Hove Actually?
