Looks lovely but the owner has zero knowledge of acoustics, unless they have some serious room correction software they could replace those excellent Dynaudio speakers with crappy hifi speakers for all the good they’ll do in that space… for an absolute start the speakers should be pointing down the longest aspect of the room, away from the wall, on stands, with nothing in front of them… the music produced here will only sound good in that room. Please – if you’re going to invest in hardware, spend some time to do some research and invest in a little knowledge also. Failing that – stick to some expensive headphones.

I understand that but what type of room is it meant to be? Is it a small bedroom? It can’t be a living room or a dining room. Not a kitchen or bathroom. I am just curious to know what type of room that was meant to be by the people who built it. I am in the New York where rooms can be small but I have not seen one that narrow. Where are you located?

I’m more partial to the Gibson Les Paul (although it and the Strat are not interchangeable and have their sounds and uses).

Also, I’d swap out the Guitar Rig 5 with Overloud’s TH2.

Yes … it’s a “long” but “narrow” rectangle

the only room I can use without running into a divorce !

The room is very narrow. What type of room is it? A bedroom? I never saw a room that narrow. Looks like a jail cell, lol.

The setup is beautiful though. Very nice.

Apple not updating Mac Pro line is making genuine users disgruntled. Not everyone compromises and settles for iMac. Apple have themselves to be blamed for proliferation of Hackintosh around the world…

According to Macrumors Apple have told retailers that a new Mac Pro will launch this spring!!!

And understand how you feel. It might have seen like Mac have forgotten the people demanding REAL power from a stationary Mac!

Would the macbook air be damaged sitting in front of a speaker by the bass causing vibration? Also, would the speaker magnets interfere or damage the macbook air?
