Back to the Klipsch RP-8000F's... The MA's are good in many ways, but still not as good as these Klipsch. A real surprise to me.

Giving the Monitor Audio Bronze 500's another shot again...

Here's the system in our (new to us) home that we just purchased. I changed things up a bit with the system, pulling the Emotiva XPA-2 Gen 2 amp out and bringing back these little NuPrime STA-9 amps. Also brought back the Polk Audio PSW-505 subs. It's hard to tell from the pics, but the main speakers are pulled 5' out from the wall, and they can come out further if need be. So far, so good, for only living in the house for a week.

Looking good!
Been playing with speaker/sub placement a lot more lately, as well as crossover and gain settings on the subs. The speakers front baffles are now just over 6 feet from the front wall, the subs are about an additional 8 inches further out than in these pictures. Tweaking width spacing and toe in about 1/4 inch intervals, this system is finally creating an extremely realistic, holographic sound stage with great depth, width and pretty decent height. With the right recordings, the speakers completely disappear as well as the subs.
I'm really enjoying the system in this new, larger room/house.

Your cat's not happy with your placement of the cat beds. "Here would be better" :)
LOL! Probably so, but her preferred spot is right along side me on the couch. :thumbsup:
Awesome pics and system! What makes it super-cool though, is that you clearly care for your cats as much as your gear!!:respect:
:thumbsup:
Marco.
Thank you for the kind words, Marco.
I do love my cats, and they are very well taken care of. I don't know what I'd do without them as I have always had cats ever since I was a baby.
On a side note, I brought out my custom white quartz slabs that I had made several years back, and put them under the NuPrime amps. And of course, some of the kitties laying around enjoying the system with me.
