Hello Rodney,
Welcome to AA !
You have a superb room and system.
I am too a Squeezebox lover. Never felt any desire to upgrade it except for a 12 V linear power supply.
Do you use one or the stock little transfo ?

Jerome , I too love the Squeezeboxen , works well with ROON

I actually tried a few power supplies for the Squeezebox , in fact I ABed them , in that I set up 2 SBT's , one with OEM power supply and one with aftermarket.
No difference , if anything I thought the aftermarket supplies werent as good as the stock ones .. i just went back to stock. However I have heard of folk finding the aftermarket supplies better when using the SBT in analog mode , I use it in the digital domain.

Great to have you here on board Rodney!
You have a terrific system.
The room is gorgeous.
If I ever upgrade, the Spirit (Mark II?! :D) is candidate number one.

Bart . I'm of the opinion that the room is one of the most important components..it's what mangles the sound before it hits your ears. Money and time spent on treating it is well spent.

My room is entirely clad with a special acoustic panel that is slotted and pierced .. all on battens with rockwool between the panel and the wall..a small airgap
The panels do a little diffusion and absorbtion the ceiling has the same in the void , but for diffusion I use a faux Rockwall .. not the ideal diffusers but they work

in every corner I have both tube and flat bass traps .. tube deep into corner and flat traps straddling them.. behind my listening chair I have 2 absorbtion panels

Carpets on floors , floors are that fake wood , but have acoustic underlay

All windows barring 1 were replaced with glass bricks

Dedicated pure sine wave inverter , 5kw , fed by solar charged batteries supply ultra clean power (here in SA , brownouts and surges is common

No isolation or any serious tweaks .. my system sits on a coffee table as the rack

My listening chair is an ergonomic office chair from ergohuman , the Nefil .. tried about 7 listening chairs before I got the ideal one

The double doors to my room are soundproof .. the room is as well .. I can play as loud as I like..my bass has actually cracked the ceiling

Here are some pics of the room etc .. some items have shuffled around as the pics werent all taken at the same time .

Just... excellent. The speakers look like something out of a Pedro Almodóvar creation...

I will live inside that room 24/7 x 365 for infinite years and never come out.

Wow, nice room! I like the 70 1/2 split bumper camaro pic :)

Yeh .. I had a hot 454 in that with a 350hp NOS fogger system controlled by a DR jacobs..low 10's on our local dragstrip.. streetable..sort of .. PS I have far less hair these days ...
Car was sold and returned to stock .. I also had a stock 67 Rs/SS and a 69 which was butchered entirely for drags , low 7 sec , blown injected big block.. and finally a 95 z28

Rodney, that is one of the most beautiful rooms I've ever seen on this site. Welcome to AA!!

Thanks Rodney,

Very interesting. I use the SB in digital only and found the linear psu to be better but I did not make a test as good as you did !
