Mika K's system

[Mika K]

Thanks!

Today family is gone gone gone, so had plenty of time to re-check the speaker position with new amp and it really seems that the optimum location for the speakers is bit different than earlier. I guess it is mainly because the McIntosh amp has bit more grunt at the bass and this causes the system balance to change a fait bit..

Now it looks like this at our living room other end.

Something i noticed do they not have fited carpets in Scandynavia?

[Mika K]

No, at least Finland can be considered as a fitted carpet free zone as far as I'm aware..

Incredible picture, love the lights on the McIntosh. Looks very classy in black & white. Feeling green with envy now.

Any particular reason Mika as it's not that warm over there O i couldnt live without a thick underlay & carpet, just like stroking a persian cat walking over one

Hmm, from my perspective that's bit weird statement as here every house and apartment are constructed properly for winter (base insulation, no direct chimnays, heavy insulated doors and 3-layer windows etc) and have good heating systems. Despite it can be more than -30 degrees outside the inside temperature is usually between +19 and +23 degrees in every house with warm floors including the public locations as schools etc. Naturally.

I already apologize the following but

I have visited UK few times during winter period and have been always freezing when spending time inside. Also the moisture is a problem and that might lead to all kinds of different situations with bacteria, mold, fungus etc. The fitted carpet does not save anything even with thick underlay when construction basics are not there for the cold times. Also that thingie is such a pain to keep clean that wouldn't hope similar solution even to my worst enemies

But we love mould & condensation

Yes, I bet you do
