My system
well, cool beans, the above is my system here in the Tidewater area of Virginia...not much has changed since this picture. Replaced the smaller rug in front of the speakers with a large Tabriz I bought on a trip to Turkey many years ago, which semed to take away a bit of the brightness.
You might not be able to see it, but the Summits are resting on top of granite slabs under their entire footprint (with felt dots under the slabs so I can move the speakers around if I wanna tweek their placement), and I also have some narrow slabs that are under the rear feet--read alot about leaning the panels to near vertical and from the sweet spot, it does make it sound better.
Gotta tell ya though, the upgrade bug has bitten me--would love to replace the Summits with Revel Salons (or maybe something from Avalon or Sonus)...then the Summits could move to the home theater to replace the M/L Ascents that are up there now, and the Ascents could move to the thrid floor to join their smaller brother Aerius in the emergency backup system...but, the status quo is the easiest thing to maintain, so will stick with what I've got now...
