Charles, I see you have your priorities set correctly. I believe yours is the first that I have seen whose sound system dwarfs their monitor in size.

PMCH, thank you so much for your observation. All the room treatment on the front wall is absorptive. Behind that double window which is the only one in my room is a motorized hurricane shutter custom fitted. I have removed the battery from the remote because I never plan on raising it. I chose the option that lets a little light through even with it closed but it's easy to watch a movie in broad daylight. We get a lot of thunderstorms and lightning where I live.

I have been trying to figure out how I wanted to raise my amps in my stand so the hinges wouldn’t hit the front of them. I would either need to recess the amps or have custom heavy duty shelves made to support the amps in the Salamander rails.

I was given a wonderful Viking cutting board for Christmas. Looking at the 20”x14”x2” dimensions I had an idea and ordered more..

I am more excited about cutting boards than I should be, but they worked out perfect for what I needed and were probably the cheapest upgrade i’ve ever made..

Now to replace the Furman with a Mac and add another Mac amp to the empty spot..
