Ask your Wife to show me her RACK

20150703192626503.jpgThis is the rack in my "Not Quite a Man Cave". Out of frame positioned extreme left and right are the bass cabinets which are powered by the Crown XLS2500. The small speakers on the night stands are dedicated dome midranges crossed over at 400Hz and powered by the Carver M1.0t. Tucked away inside the night stands are a set of ESS Heil Air Motion Transformers, crossed over at 5Khz and powered by the Carver M400t. I'm using 2 Ashly XR1001's for the active crossing. My newly modded C-1 is above a dbx 120X-DS, for deep bass enhancement. Above the C-1 is an SAE parametric EQ which couples to the dbx 20/20 Eq. Music playback is accomplished via the Onkyo CD player or an mp3 player module atop the SAE. It's not a pretty setup, but oh man, does it play loud. I sit on a low-rise recliner so everything is at ear level. The Sonic Hologram effect is wide and deep and the bass power from the Crown amp is phenomenal. The new mod on the C-1 is icing on the cake.

The low level amp rack is awesome for locations between speakers to avoid causing early reflection and to not block absorption panels or diffusers. Great design... Also innovative is the use of the granite surface plate..I have a couple good sized plates at the shop that were not needed so we didn't bother to have them calibrated last time.. Monday they come home..Thanks for sharing Jazzman ! If I only had the tube amps in the pics, I'll have to wipe up the puddle of drool on the floor. The wife will think I was watching porn !!happy0009.gif
