    Okay Mika

    I've been jealous of your system and room for some time now, that Eames chair almost pushed me over the edge but those JBLs have finally done it. I will be coming over to Finland to burgle your house in the near future

    Some people have no idea what they're doing and a lot of them are really good at it.

    Yep no problem - as we have different musical tastes we should be able to whack it out between us quite successfully

    Those CDs you're free to snag any given day as long as you stay away from my vinyl collection..

    Today spent few hours tweaking the speaker placement for the JBLs and actually found one I prefer over the previous one. Also did some experiments with the speaker height using some small bricks and books under the current feet made from wood and think I nailed it. Later today contacted my local carpenter (who is friend of mine) with the exact measurements and ordered the stands bit like the ones used by Kenrick Audio. As he is crafting those for me besides other more commercial stuff don't know the exact target date, so not going to hold my breath for the quick delivery..

    In the meantime a little pic from yesterday evening when was listening some music while Mrs. was at work. Daddys and kids toys fit here nicely..

    Great system. Even better pics. Like the use of flare in this one.
    I did like the retro bamboo blinds in the old room.

    Two questions
    1. What camera?
    2. Where are these white acoustic panels from?

    p.s. I used to be on the floor doing the Brio with my kids

    The pic was taken ages ago while we were still living in our old apartment but..

    1. Looking from the storage it looks like the pic was taken with Panasonic DMC-LX3 (f/2:1/4":5.1mm:ISO 800)
    2. The panels are DIY by yours truly using Ecophon Master Alpha acoustic panels in size 120x60x4cm plus Auralex Acoustics DST-R diffusive tiles on top.

    Wonderful pic, Mika. I love the warmth and cosiness portrayed by the room, thanks to the soft lighting and the gentle glow of the meters on the McIntosh amp - just my kinda thing!

    I could happily chill there for hours
