Freddie - I was hoping to hear a pair of Lyras there too, the press on them has been stellar. I thought the Constellation room sounded good too, but we were less impressed with the Rockport/CH Precision room upstairs. We asked them to play the MOFI pressing of Keb Mo's debut album on vinyl which we were all familiar and it just didn't sound very good. You would have to think it was the room when considering the price of the equipment but who knows. Marc and I even mentioned the room to a couple of guys from The Absolute Sound and they thought the same as us.....weren't impressed. Anyway, I bet the Lyra's would sound stunning in a nice setup.
