Default Lakesailor's Class A radiant heater hideway

Finally my “dedicated” listening room is now finally complete. Unfortunately I was stuck with the dimensions and as you can see, it is a tiny room. The upside is that the Pathos TT integrated amp being a “Class A” design can heat this room even in the nastiest Canadian winter. Heck you could roast marshmallows over it !

The system is primarily setup for vinyl listening although I have a modest Wadia digital setup for in between moments. It’s tough shoehorning a system into such a small room but the end results actually sound better than you might think.

It’s not perfect by any stretch but its cosy, is wickedly sound proof, and provides a perfect getaway spot to put on some LP’s and crank up the music undisturbed. Thanks to many AA folks who provided advice and other inspiration to make this project a reality.

This is a great looking set up, I bet it sounds fantastic. The Adagio JR's are a perfect fit too.

Thanks guys !!!! Aside from a new phono.cart I think I finally have found pure sonic bliss (unless of course I hear Kahuna Canucks new SACD player and decide no system is complete without one…)
