Mika K's system

Fantastic mate !

Beautiful system and room :cool:



Regards Neil

Yes, it's the suitably high level of 'awesomeness' we've become accustomed to from Mika! :youtheman:

Marco.

Thanks guys!

Just received the cnc'd aluminum plates to replace the original ones at the back of the JBL enclusures, and the post office has the new stuffing waiting for the pick up. Now just waiting for the WBT parts to arrive and to finalize the whole thing.. :)

Mika, as always, love your photos of your room and system. I was just going back through these, it has been awhile, and I just loved the picture of your daughter, post 128, enough to melt anyone's heart. Beautiful kids you have, the most important thing for sure!

Thanks for sharing your setup along the way! Tim

Thanks Tim!

I actually spent the day putting JBLs back together for good as yesterday received the long awaited WTB binding posts and few minor parts that have been missing. So now I'm enjoying the system first time in its full glory almost in two months and oh boy :D Perhaps some pics tomorrow if can get my DSLR working again..

Took few days but here are some pics of the current system and few details of the current condition of the JBLs - the nice cherry veneer, cnc'd aluminum panels with WBT terminals and new Kenrick Sound 2308/L91 horn lenses. Still missing the aluminum JBL model plates around the potentimeters, the places you can see at the pics. Also still have the red curtains on the windows I'm not so fond of, but hey! That's up to Mrs when get the other ones back I like more :)

Lovely looking listening room Mika - you must be very proud of it. :)

Thanks Barry! And yes I am proud especially as it's our familys living room and not any dedicated cave where I need to escape when feel like listening some music. And of course the kids and Mrs use it also, so.. :)

Absolutely wonderful, Mika! As ever (and even more so now, with the speaker refurbishment) your room epitomises the perfect stylish, cosy and inviting space, which just *makes* you want to settle down for a long and extended music listening session….

Actually, I rather like the red curtains, as they act as an effective contrast against the otherwise fairly neutral colour palette, serving to create a focal counterpoint, and adding warmth. It’s a classic interior design concept/trick - something I know a little about, working with interior designers, as an art dealer.

Plus, folk these days seem to be afraid of COLOUR. Personally, I’d ban the sale of Magnolia paint from all shops [generally used by bland people with no personality], and force folk to think outside of the box a bit, when it comes to decor, and stop playing it boring and safe!!

Gorgeous... I wish your family and you many happy hours of enjoying that lovely space! :)
