Dan looks like he is very happy in his "shop".

Very nice listening room. Did you catch the size of what I think are the power cords on those amps?

Interesting finish on the floor.

I would love to give these speakers a listen. The reviews are amazing!

I see what looks like a McIntosh player of some type there as well.

They are Daedalus Audio Ulysses speakers with Ebonized Walnut finish:

Manufacturer's site - Daedalus Audio Reference Series Speakers

Positive Feedback review - daeduls audio ulysses

It has been several years since I have visited Dan Wright in person (before he built out his on-site listening room and manufacturing facility) so I need to do that again sometime soon. I have listened to his modded sources and SWL 9.0 preamp before but would love to see his new facilities and hear his reference system including the high end Modwright stack and the Ulysses speakers

Also I believe the Mc equipment in one of the pictures is a MC162 amp that he has had for several years
