Title: Listening Room Shots Post by Jon on 10/09/10 at 20:52:14 Hey everyone, Here are some pictures of my listen room and system; a combination of HiFi audio and TV entertainment. HiFi equipment: Decware SE84ZS Rega p3-24 w/Elys 2 Cartridge Musical Surroundings Phonomena Phono Stage Decware Zbox H/K HD7600 CDP Audio Nirvana Super 12" Cast Frame's BPT Power Center Signal Cable Power Cords and Interconnect Anti Cable Speaker Cables The audio stand was inspired by Steve's turntable stand. The phono stage and CDP will at some point be replaced with Decware equipment (once the bank account allows me to)! Jon |

Title: Re: Listening Room Shots Post by ZYGI on 10/10/10 at 00:34:29 Jon, Looks very nice. I have to ask, what kind of wood is on your speakers? Very unusual figure! ZYGI |
Title: Re: Listening Room Shots Post by Jon on 10/10/10 at 06:26:49 Hi ZYGI, The veneer is Mahogany Drape from South America. Here's a link from where I got it: http://www.certainlywood.com/woodmenulist.cfm?c=138 I'm really happy with how the veneer came out! Jon |
Title: Re: Listening Room Shots Post by Hajj on 10/11/10 at 09:40:55 Hi Jon, you finally posted the pics. Nice setup you've got there :) So, tell me, how are those AN super 12s sounding in the 2.6 enclosures? |
Title: Re: Listening Room Shots Post by Jon on 10/12/10 at 00:41:36 Hey Nick, The super 12s are sounding pretty darn good in my opinion. They are a little light in the lowest bass octaves. However, I have already noticed a difference from day one with the bass extension. I currently have 20-30 hours on them. The mid range is absolutely amazing! I have not really noticed any high frequency harshness. I actually find these less harsh in the higher frequencies than my previous pair of speakers (mirage frx-5's). I'm also still playing around with placement to dial in the soundstage. Jon |
Title: Re: Listening Room Shots Post by Hajj on 10/12/10 at 14:03:39 I'm glad you found the bass to your liking. I'm sure the acoustic foam behind the speakers plays a role in it. wait until you get 200 hours on them, they'll be giving out more bass than you thought possible from a full range driver, at least that's my experience even in a live room like mine. Regards Nick |
Title: Re: Listening Room Shots Post by Mark Williams on 04/22/11 at 10:35:05 Jon, Just and idea about your speakers. If you feelthe bass is compromised, you could try either a piece of cork or some light felt instead of the foam behind the driver. Stick them on with double faced tape. If you don't like it -- easy to remove. I've had good luck with either the sheet cork or felt. You get some taming of the resonances, but not too much like foam sometimes provides. Mark |
Title: Re: Listening Room Shots Post by Keith Perez on 09/16/11 at 09:54:54 Arranged very nicely and systematically. Your listening room is very attractive Jon and you have posted the pictures very nicley. |
Title: Re: Listening Room Shots Post by jill nabi on 10/04/11 at 13:27:14 It looks more impressive rather than previous arrangement. |

Title: Re: Listening Room Shots Post by Lonely Raven on 08/06/14 at 16:48:18 This is the first time I've stumbled into this thread - that gear stand is awesome, and the turntable is a work of art! |
Title: Re: Listening Room Shots Post by Guy13 on 08/07/14 at 12:47:27 Hi Jon. Your Super 12s are Audio Nirvana from Common Sense ? Nice set up you have. Your turntable is..... Well, let say: Special. Guy 13 from planet Vietnam. |
Title: Re: Listening Room Shots Post by darrwood on 01/15/15 at 01:19:39 I like your system. I have been considering the audio nirvana speakers as a project I have 3 questions Which magnets. What speakers did you have before. Describe the sound. Thanks, Darrell |
Title: Re: Listening Room Shots Post by Raymundo on 02/21/15 at 01:02:51 Jon, I an dazzled by the burl turntable. How did you come across it? I copied down the maker's info and his store in New Orleans. It is such a leap from my habit of reading reviews and shopping audiogon. How is the audio quality? Raymundo |
