Very nice room and equipment set up! And welcome to AK!!
Thanks and thanks! Should have introduced myself and said hey, but was so impressed with myself figuring out how to post pics i forgot to type! Started this room about a year ago after a several year hiatus from audio. Slowly but surely its coming together. Everything except the Kallax has been thrifted or bought second hand, equipment included. I built the cd shelving. I love the gear part of this but prefer to spend whatever budget i have on music!Very nice room and equipment set up! And welcome to AK!!

Thanks man! I've tried to keep it simple and as compact as possible and in the same time to serve both of my interests: stereo & surround listening.Wow!!! Nice setup. Done very tastefully
Wrong height for tweeter.I think you should get yourself a more comfortable listening seat.
Nice!Latest and greatest incarnation
Good deal. I consider RCMs an essential tool for the vinylphile.Actually not, but I've been using a "CleanerVinyl Max Cavitation System" .
Latest and greatest incarnation
Nice setup! I've heard great things about that MANLEY LABS CHINOOK SPECIAL EDITION MKII. In your opinion does it live up to the hype?

As an experienced Manly Man I'd skip the "MANLEY LABS CHINOOK SPECIAL EDITION MKII" for me the tube set from Upscale Audio (for me) are a over sale gimmick. First off I'd just get the Manley stock tubes they come burnt- in and sound very nice, then If I wanted something very good and not to expensive get a quad of Gold Lions YOU'LL BE SET !!
As far as the Chinook goes I've had several Phono Stages and I know for me, I'll have this one till I croke.
Ideally you can find a Chinook on eBay or Audiogon...Get the Gold Lions you'll be very happy and be heaver in the pocket book.
