Brought out tall boy to play with my newly arrived Hell Freezes Over vinyl. Now my living room looks like a bar populated with aliens lol.

The lighting in my new listening room is horrible. So this is the best I have for now. The finish is not perfect, but I like the contrast.

Music...let it move you!
Cantons are really great speakers.....especially when you move up into the the Vento and reference series. IF you run across the Vento series, snatch them up quickly! Cantons love tubes!

Very nice! Now I want one too
Is it cosmetic, or is there more to it?
Where did you get it done, or did you do it yourself?

Yeah, I am beginning to find that out. The more time I spend listening to them, the more I am really enjoying them. And I bet they love tubes. They are a tad bit on the bright side. Not fatiguing or ear bleed like Klipsch. In fact nothing close but I bet some tubes would really bring them to another level. But it would have to be a pretty powerful tube amp. My NUForce at 80watts per channel is being taxed some. They’re pretty power hungry at 86.5db. I am going to try an Allo Volt+D and see how they respond.

I had a local metal plating company do it. I did end up with some slight bubbles under the copper. This appears to be an issue with the zinc aluminum out gassing. I guess if you have it brass or rhodium plated, then copper it will help eliminate this. I will see how bad the bubbles get. It still looks very good.
No audible improvement. I was only after an aesthetic change. I suppose the extra mass is a good thing. But plating adds very little, say 1/100 gram.

I have the same issue with speakers. The only way I'll get more in this home is if I bring a pair home and move a pair out.I have honestly lost track of how many freakin amps there are in the house. i dont know how my wife puts up with me.

Thought I would share my “vacation system”. This is a system I have at my cabin in Florida. I know placement is not the best, but I am limited by space and spouse lol. It’s a weekend get away place and the system definitely fills the cabin with tunes. Denon PRA 1003 and POA 1003. Also an old pair of Polk SDA 2’s.
I searched hard for the matching Denon pre to my amp. Found on Ebay in California about 10 years ago. I have had the Amp for 30 years? Was my main amp for a long period. I think these were mostly Marketed overseas. Tremendous build quality.
Threw in old Sony sub I had for Netflix watching.
I will add that when I was taking these pics I was watching Hans Zimmer live from Prague on Netflix. Really good show, I recommend.

It's from Crate and Barrel. I don't think they make this model anymore but they may still make similar ones.
