Looks lovely to me!

They Zensor 1's? Was tempted with them myself but went a different route...

What's the rest of the system?

[Solrighal]

Hi Dan,

Yes, got the speakers in one. They were originally bought to be put on stands but my third mid-life crisis made me buy a Novation Impulse 49 MIDI controller so they're now used as monitors. I can't play a note by the way. I just wanted to finally confirm it, lol.

The rest of the gear is a Marantz PM6004 stereo integrated amp fed via my Project Ember Mk2 from an ODAC hooked up to my Mac. Cables are variously Linn, Furukawa & Mogami.

Any critical listening I do is via my Sennheiser HD 650's & the Project Ember, valve used is music dependent.

The Zensor 1's are actually excellent loudspeakers but really need a bit more room to breathe. Unfortunately my wife isn't an aficionado of hi-fi so everything's in this wee room. At least we don't fall out any more. :lol:

Tidy set-up, I'm especially liking the refreshments.

Hi

is that a keyboard or a synth ?

System looks good :)

[hifilover]

I've a similar system as you'll see in my sig, my pictures further down this thread etc...

I've found the Roxdon isolation blocks to be superb and highly recommend them to anyone with a similar system, £22 off eBay IIRC

Good music and pints of wine. What more could a man want:D

Aye, I'm more of a beer man myself but i ran out of that & the nearest shop is eight miles away so wine it is. Not too bad though.

It's a MIDI controller, hooked up to Logic 10. I bought it just before Christmas and was getting along fine but then my Dad took seriously ill on holiday in the Philippines & it went on the back burner. We got him home a fortnight ago but he died here in Scotland. It's now time to get back to it.

I don't really have isolation problems ,rather there's no space behind the speakers. They're rear ported you see. Not ideal but what can you do?

Indeed, life has been worse. :cool:

You have a bitburger (is that what AT called it?) in your sig, well done. I remember trying to sell them in my other life with Hi-Fi Corner. Pointless.
