Default Tony aka antonmb's system

I've recently upgraded the electronics in my main system from an ARC DSi200 integrated and Linn Accurate DS streamer, to a Linn Klimax DSM pre/streamer/dac and Klimax Twin power amp. Here's what the new setup looks like. I'll post a review of the new gear separately. Thanks for looking.

Tony. I did your turn table rack and the vinyl shelving. #1. Where did you get the turntable rack? and where did you get the vinyl shelving?

Looks like you have a beautiful back yard too!

Thanks David. The turntable wall shelf is a Quadraspire, same as my system rack. I bought it from a Seattle dealer but I'm sure there must be one in the Bay area. The vinyl shelving is something I picked up probably 25 or 30 years ago at a local furniture store, no idea where you'd find something like it now.

Shucks! Well, that's nearly before my time! But I like what you have a lot! I like that you can easily get to all your vinyl at eye level for the most part. And it looks like there's glass doors that protect it too? Very nice...

I could definitely use some vinyl storage like that in my place. Looks very good and the glass gives you a visual aid and protection at the same time.

Very elegant looking system, Tony.

Plus I like your Beethoven musical selection too!

Thanks for sharing.

Very much impressed Tony. No wonder you spend so much time listening . . . .

Looking at all that great stuff, one can only assume that the rope business must be very good.

Pretty room + excellent equipment = Great Sound

Great system, lovely room, and a stunning view.

That view will go well with Handel's Water music
