    sorry if this is a misunderstanding, but what did you try to find on my pictures? The AKG K701? Here they are:



    They also can be seen in the shelf behind my desk, just at the left side of the computer screen:

    The headphone stand only looks good; in reality it feels a little cheap, but it works and it’s a convenient way for placing the cans somewhere.

    yes, it is – congratulations, you have great eyes! I love nearly every tone and every word from Tori Amos. The more often I hear her songs, the more I like them. For me it’s a great help to first read her lyrics, because occasionally she uses outlandish emphasis and intonation to sing her words.

    Tori Amos is a big fan of Bösendorfer grand pianos, which have been manufactured in Vienna, Austria’s capital, since the year 1828.

    Oh yes, she is fantastic, but that first album is still my favourite, especially China. I think I'd recognise that cover at any size and angle!

    I must admit I had a crush on her when that album came out, but her music blows me away!

    Hi Werner, I was meaning not being able to see the supports for the speakers and sub.

    Have you seen these for the speakers. The wedge so that the speakers fire down twoards you.

    I see, now I understand. The tweeters of the bookshelf speakers are placed exactly at the same height as my ears when sitting in the chair (I am 6 feet and 6 inches tall). As far as I know this is the perfect height placement for a loudspeaker.
