OT: Upgraded my audio system while I'm in GT3 RS Limbo
Being that I can never sit still, I decided to remodel my listening room. I just put some new gear in and wanted to give it more of a special feel than just being a space optimized for 2 channel listening.
The old room with Kef Blade 2s (going to a good home with another RL member), Theta Prometheus, Aesthetix Pandora Eclipse, Mojo Audio Mac Mini and an old BPT 2.5 power conditioner:
New version of the room with a little paint, new lamps, the Sonus Faber Il Cremonese, Ayre KX-5 Twenty Preamp, Ayre VX-5 Twenty Amplifier, Ayre QX-5 Digital Steamer/DAC, Audioquest Niagara 7000 power conditioner, Audioquest WEL Signature Interconnects, Audioquest Redwood biwire speaker cables, GIK Acoustic wall and ceiling treatments and Quadraspire X-Reference rack (waiting for sofa):

It looks like a cross between a temple (which in some ways it is), and a laboratory dedicated to zapping you into ant man
Good luck, and happy listening !

LOL!!! I'm waiting for my GT3.2....and did exactly the same thing! Got bored, and upgraded the HOME THEATER room...my layout is a little different, as I am set up for 7.1 ATMOS, etc....
BTW, Sonus Faber speakers (as you know, obviously) ROCK, the most MUSICAL I've ever heard....
For HT, I went with Paradigm Signatures all around...
OK, now to back to Porsche.

Here is the poor man's version
May be I should think of upgrading this, it's been 5 years. On another note, here is what takes my time while I await, all DIY. Finishing touches are pending. Love to play with cars and electronics.

GT3 RS limbo looks great and I'm sure sounds great too!
Very nicely done.

Spectacular setup, Dr. G!!!
I have the Paradigm Signatures (S8, etc...) in my home theater. They're phenomenal, and trounced in comp trials vs top of the line B&W, Revel, and many other apex challengers, over the range of musical genres.

Some crazy stuff there. That room is probably worth more than most homes.
Question for Dr G. I live in Niagara and was curious with the name of your Audioquest "Niagara" 7000 power conditioner?
