Here's a pic of my embarrassingly poor and sloppy layout. I've been struggling for months trying to figure out how to make this more elegant with my space constraints. (It's all in a 12 x 12 room that is my bedroom and living room.) Having this picture posted may shame me into doing something better sooner. BTW, hiding behind the Teac is an Akai 4000DB that's not currently in use. And supporting the Scott tuner on the floor is a Conrad-Johnson MF-200 that's not in use.
