Impressive. I also like the art glass.

Thanks James, they are Salt Lamps.

Nice cord management. There are many here that are envious for that alone.:slightly_smiling_face:

No matter what I do, I always end up with a rat’s nest.

How is bi-wiring working for you considering you have 380wpc at your disposal without?. I’ve heard pros/cons on bi-wiring and bi-amping.

Using my old iFi’s in my bedroom with headphones and on my selfmade iFi stand. Still sounds great.

A nice looking set and indeed a beautiful rack.

Slim, thanks for the cable management complement, I guess it could be a tad OCD on my behalf. As for the Bi-Wire thing, I’ll drop into the the topic/thread for a read/comment, and not muddy this thread.

Is that an audio system or a deconstructed MRI?

Very, Very Cool setup. That surely makes a great talking point in a room. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, that is a nicely build rack. Great job!

Some info regarding the stand

Great set up! Could you please explain the 4 speaker configuration? First time I’ve come across it.
Do the salt lamps spice up the sound, by the way?

This might be a better thread for that question. It was split off from this thread -

Slim, that thread is about bi-wiring/amping. I’m asking about quad-speakering… And one brief little reply here will suffice, so as not to go off topic.

If you read the description you will see that the four speaker setup is a result of bi-wiring, at least that’s how I interpret it, but maybe the OP did something different.:neutral_face:

Anyway, not especially trying to push you off to somewhere else.

I’m ready to take my “audiophileness” into my office. Work in an open desk environment so desk space is at a premium and I don’t want to put together something too silly expensive since it will be out in the open but certainly something that makes people ask questions. I was thinking of a Schiit stack and a nice headphone stand. The iFi rack above would look very excellent and convinced me this thread needed more set-ups that would work in an office. Show me your office set-ups (please)!

Briefly, I did the 4 x Towers because, #1- I already had them #2-I have bucket-Loads of power to feed the 4, so why not. They fill the room effortlessly. The system handles all I throw at it musically with aplomb. Lamps are for subtle lighting only, no secret sonic woo-woo involved … :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Alright then! :slight_smile:
Quick snap of my work-setup:


Topping D10 + Xindak H1 + Philips Fidelio x2
Software is JRiver MC 25 on the work PC. Still eagerly awaiting some form of mobile Roon!
But this works, and sounds pretty OK!
