Whoa!!!!!!!!!!! Now that is a home theater!:bowdown: What kind of subs are those in the back? That setup must ROCK:rocker:. Glen Ok. I went back up and read about your subs, which is what I should've done in the first place. But still......WOW!

Feltran that is a beautiful setup you have. Everything looks so classy!:bowdown: When you do get your art panels in from GIK please post more pictures, and if you have any of your seating area that would be great. Glen

I have to agree with both Jonathan and Dave as to power cable length/aftermarket audible difference. My left Vantage has a longer power cable 1 1/2 meter longer than the right Vantage. I can't tell any difference. Even having upgraded to aftermarket power cables I'm still not sure if there...

I enjoyed reading your experience Kevin as it sent me down memory lane as to the first time I heard Martin Logans. I was the same way when it came to electrostatic speakers and not knowing they even existed much less having the knowledge that they had been out for many years. I was just amazed...

Hello Vantageman and welcome. I too have the same preamp: Ayre K1-xe, and cd player: Ayre C-7xe, also I use Vantages. They work extremely well together and could not recommend them more highly. But like all things hifi if you can test out a pair in your own setup that would be best. Of...

Great Post!!!!

Hey Repman, I'm not sure how to explain it very well but it mostly involves setting up your system so that it performs the best it can within the environment you have. He does not try to sale you equipment or other accessories but rather listens and adjust your speakers, subs, equipment rack...

Thanks a bunch guys for your comments. Most of this would not have been possible without the help of many on this forum. Tom sure did a good thing when he decided to start this forum. On a sidenote I forgot to mention in my earlier post that the corner pieces are also new. They went up...

Thank you Justin for the kind words. It definitely has enhanced my enjoyment quite a bit with this change. I never would have thought I was missing anything, but now I'm starting to get the miracle of stereo. I'm sure it could be improved, but this was a big step in the right direction...

Here are a few updates of my system without the rack in the middle. My TT though is on the opposite side of the audio rack now for vibration purposes. This was a benefit that I had not planned on since no matter where it was located before, left or right side, it was still somewhat near the...

I found this to be the case with my setup as well. While it is not a necessity to have this tool it did meet the need in my situation. As for the walls not being square, this is something I had to take into account although the front of the room seems to be spot on. It's the farther back you...

Well done Chris. Everything looks very neat and organized. I do have a question concerning your turntable. Do you run the sub while listening to your project? The only reason I ask is because of the proximity or your sub to the TT. Do you notice any problems when you cut the volume up or...

Thanks Jeff for the great tips and cheaper I might add!! I wonder if there is such an app for the Blackberry Storm since my wife has one? And as you stated about having all 3 axis equal to each other or at least real close does definitely open up the soundstage. After moving my rack out from...

Good job guys for doing it much cheaper than me. :bowdown: Nothing wrong with doing it the old fashion way. If you have some other cost saving tips please pass them along. I just wanted to pass along what I had found. Glen

:ROFL: After reading back through what I wrote I realized how silly we must have looked. :ROFL: Thanks Gordon for your thread on this as well. When I decided to try and move my rack it was due in part to your posts when you moved your rack. I even posted and made the comment that as long as...

Here is another useful tool that I am trying out in order to get my Vantages' on the exact same angle to one another. http://www.craftsman.com/shc/s/p_10155_12602_00948295000P?keyword=digital+torpedo&sLevel=0 Of course if you make your panels parallel to the floor then a simple bubble level...

I know exactly what you mean Brian. While my issue was not with open archways or hallways there was something else that definitely skewed my soundstage and made it sound narrow in comparison. The culprit was my audio rack in between my Vantages'. I still can't believe the difference because...

Thanks Spectral for keeping us informed with your new setup. I know you have to be enjoying what you hear and I'm glad the mint lp protractor worked out. Glen

Hey Guys and Gals, I wanted to share something that you may already be familiar with but I was not. After going back through Jim Smith's book "Get Better Sound", I noticed he was using a laser measurement tool in his setups. I looked up the one he referred to in his book and it was quite...

Thanks Chris for being willing to share your loss with us. Both of your dogs are beautiful and they are a wonderful breed. As a dog lover myself my heart goes out to you guys. Glen
