Wow, now that is a very beautiful room.

Cables tidied, and a new addition in the cabinet. Now I have a CD player / transport, and additional DAC.
Because I like the cabinet, I’ve ordered a matching sideboard.
Paired a portable URBANEARS speaker with an iPod Touch, is my latest endpoint addition. (My wife made the stained-glass window.)
How did you get the art work on the panels?
Konto Acoustics is great, you can send them a digital file of your art and they’ll print it on the panel for you. (In my case I took photographs of art I owned and converted them to vector PDFs.)
New turntable. Technics SL1500C. Was reduced from 1199€ to 829€.
Old streamer , Cambridge CXN v2 for Roon.
And a SMSL SP400 headphone amp from another setup.
Thick as a brick playing and a cat thinking: it’s an enormous cardboard box!!! Already love it!!
I love these diagrams.
I want stickers too!! Maybe for lifetime membership
During COVID, I was able to buy the Accuphase and ProAc speakers as demo equipment at a great discount price.
Other ifi IDSD was my first DAC got it Carousell brand new at also discount price.
Before I had a blue sound, then updated to a ifi streamer then updated to a Raspberry pi 4 as streamer that was able to feed DSD 256 to my DAC60
In the beginning I had no idea about DSD and PCM, room correction m, etc , it was through this forum and mostly HQplayer people that helped me with this journey.

ROCK and HQplayer server
Bedroom ifi Neo iDSD
Very nice! I have a similar setup with subwoofer on center. The speakers look amazing
awesome setup. that amplifier is really a beauty. hope one day to own one or as alternative a Yamaha A-S 3200.
raspberry pis are great devices. i wonder if the new version will get support for a Rock Server. that would be great for people that do the upsampling in hqplayer on another machine.
Many thanks! Is the entry-level E-280 Accuphase, I highly recommend it.
I’m running HQplayer on an Unbuntu desktop mini and my Rock in on a NUC 5th generation. My DAC is fed by a Raspberry as running HQplayer NAA.
Rock Server needs to be on a stand-alone machine.
Nice setup! I can also relate to it!
Using HQplayer 2.1 settings and headphones listening zone.
Having spent two years on a rolling upgrade, I’m now at the ‘trying minor tweaks’ (fibre optic isolation, valve rolling) stage. But very happy indeed with what I’m hearing, and it’s very relaxing to have a DAC where you hear what the designer intended, rather than spending hours just wondering if a different HQP filter/modulator combination would realise a marginal advantage to the tonality of the triangle…
In the last four weeks, we have added two REL S812 subwoofers. This changed the lower midrange problem we had. Still searching for a turntable…
A few of us here with same subs👍
