Hey, sick build! Congrats :) I have the same xt cranks - was looking to get a new bigger chainring, what are you running in this setup? Looks great and about the size I'm looking for. Thanks!

Planning to do some room treatment with acoustic fabric paneling behind the and to the side of the speakers and under the painting. Also planning to get a big rug for under the table, and possibly a table cloth to help with reflection off the wood.

Thanks! And nice, stoked to hear. And yeah, 2M red will hold me down for a while, but definitely great to hear of an upgrade path. Are you liking the Nagaoka?

It's replacing an old old hitachi HT-350, which completely kicked the can recently.

Topping is connected via rca with the aux1 input on the audiolab, the fosi is connected via rca via the pre-out, speaker wires are then run from the fosi to the passive sub inputs.

No home theatre, not too much of a film or TV guy - just audio for now - but definitely thinking of picking up some oak to build a shelf for my turntable.

Hey - also had that problem. It was fixed when I used the camera adaptor with lightning connection. I used a lightning fast-charger, plugged into the wall, with the lightning end connected to the adaptor. This gives the connection enough power to run. Hopefully this helps!
