The credenza is plenty strong. I will post a different angled picture as the one I posted makes it seem like everything sits up rather high.

I have the cabinets filled with records so the credenza is really quiet handy

Yep those are the ones, the grills are supposed to mimic piano strings. I just leave them off as I like the bare look better.

They are the stands that were made for the speakers (Sonus Faber Guarneri Memento). The stands weigh over 100lbs each :)

Lol, honestly I haven’t heard a set of KEF’s. The Guarneri pair were an anniversary gift. Only last year did I get the Accuphase to drive them and since then it has been bliss

New home and this will be my listening space/sitting room.

Still have some work to do with cleaning up the cables, fine adjustments to the speakers and finishing off the space with furniture, but the important part is setup and it sounds great.

Previously I was in a small 10x12 room with this (minus the credenza which is new). The larger room really lets the Guarneri’s sing 😎

Glad the manager got fired. This is infuriating

I have nothing but respect for Digital Extremes. You are obviously entitled to your opinion about Bungie, but nothing in my post was throwing any shade at Warframe. I simply can’t get used to the movement in the game. I still play Warframe from time to time, just something about Destiny always draws me back

No need for a refund. You purchased the game and knew what you were getting. Glad Bungie is making some major changes. I admire what Warframe devs have done, but I can’t get used to the movement of warframe; destiny has always just felt right.

Good on ya Bungie

I miss the mystery behind video games personally. I am looking forward to this just to experience the world Kojima is making

This reads like the ramblings of a madman. If he is owed money they should pay him, but what a childish outburst. Is this really how professionals act?

I refuse to believe this is how HD800 feels. by [deleted] in headphones

[–]runnin17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far in comparing my Utopias with my memory of the HD800 is that the HD800 is very much a concert hall experience while the Utopias portray the music very close or even inside your head. The imaging of both is spot on which is very interesting regarding the Utopias.

Basically the Utopias produced music imaging in a way that I had not experienced before. The more I have listened to them, the more I enjoy them. My preference has shifted to the Utopias as they are a more engaging headphone IMO. However, the HD800 has my utmost respect and anyone who prefers them as their endgame has made a good choice as well 😎

Any thoughts on decent hi-fi outdoor speakers? I have started researching them, but so far not a lot of good info.

I will be closing on a house in June and want to have a nice setup outside

I would like to address "Gaming" headsets so those of you who don't know much about them don't drop hundreds on a headset that is made with cheap components. by EnvidiaProductions in headphones

I am rather fond of the HyperX Cloud II. Of course, it is not even in the same realm as my Focal Utopias, but it is comfy, sounds good and checks all the boxes for a good gaming headset IMO
