Creation of a music lounge

Before completing the wall we had left the tv to this height on the plywood. Effectively at the beginning we found that the height was a little bit high, but when we listen to movies for example, we are always stretched out on the couch, etc. … Thus honestly now we find the height perfect. So, it is really a question of usually. But I like as it is at present. Anyway holes and cables passed as a consequence so no way to come back :D
 
This is what can be achieved if you go at it all the way. I wish you many hours enjoying sonic bliss and eye candy.

Hey thank you. There still some stuff to do here and there but it's basically over. I'm quite happy with the result.

It's not over, until you get a nice looking turntable. :)

Just when I was about to post, I read that you didn't want one and that you don't have much vinyl. BUT, given your talent for decorating and choosing equipment that both looks great and sounds great, an awesome looking TT, even if never used, would make the room even look cooler - kinda like an expensive painting (which serves no function at all) hanging on a wall. I was even thinking of getting one of those old gramaphones just for decoration but my place is too small.

But I'm sure if you got a TT, you'd put it to good use and start up a nice vinyl collection. A nice cabinet showing off the albums would look cool too!

I have just bought a good cd player (Check signature). I hesitated for a long time between a cd player and a table, but I wanted to stop saying to myself that I wanted a cd player, and it for a long time. Thus for the moment the project to buy a TT is on the ice but not definitive. Just a project for later :thmbsp:

Hello Phil,
So, how are you enjoying your CD1000? Have you got any impressions of it to share with us yet?
 
I did not receive it yet, given circumstances at GF and it is understandable. But I received the tracking number at the beginning of the week thus I should receive it by the end of the week.

Thanks guys

Here is finally a series of photos. Personally they are not my preferred but the day lighting is what is better to show exactly these small details. Probably that I am going to make a series a little more in the evening theme. Enjoy.

You have done very well! Just outstanding! Congrats on the new space!
 
I wanted for a long time a good cd player. I just bought the CD-1000 from Grant Filelity. This device also replace my Opera Consonance D-Linear 7 and 8. The interne DAC from the W-30 is good enough to stand as my second source since the cd player is now my primary. Ain't it beautiful ?

I will definetly post some impression more later since the unit is brand new. But it already sound very musical.

I love the view out the window as well as your system.

If i were you, I would mount the Tv much lower - optometrists say that our eyes are most comfortable when looking down about 10-15 degrees, and not up.

Perhaps you can find another place for the Grant Fidelity, and put the TV right on top of the table...

Might want to experiment with that.

Congrats on a great looking man's cave - I wish it was mine - someday, I will build a even neater one, so there...haha (just kid)

First, let me congratulate you on creating a beautiful listening space. I'll take exception, however, with Gongli's height recommendation. Every recommendation I've come across, whether it was by the guys who installed my set to any number of other sites, recommend setting the display's height so that when you look at it, keeping your eyes level should put them at about level with a point approximately one third of the way up from the bottom of the screen.

Additionally, the further back you sit from the display, the less significant its height becomes, and the OP looks like he sits quite a ways back.

14 feets exactly and i like my ty like it is ;)
 
I finally had time to make a more serious listening of my cd player. It has now approximately 100 hours and the sound seems to be optimized. There are two things which I retain of my listening: the quality of the register of the basses and the separation between instruments. The importance of a good source has just taken all its importance for me.
:)
 
This is how every listening place should look, minimal and clean. You sir have a beautiful listening place. A lot of people can learn from this. It dosent take much to get rid of so much unecessary things and just have what you "need". Great job!:yes:
