Heh, it's a product of 35 years of insanity. Over time, I've replaced most of the less-than-perfect pressings, whenever possible, but some titles are just impossible to find.

Prestige, I've always liked that room of yours, full of natural light, a very nice system, records and drinks... And a great dog to had some life. Looks really comfortable to relax and have fun.

Congratulations!

What's the Ayre component that you are using?

Thanks! It's an Ayre P5xe phono pre. I run it fully balanced between the VPI and the Cary.

A couple of shots of our HT sub, as it was being built ~8 years ago. A pair of 18" Dayton pro woofers in a MLTL alignment. We used a ~48ft3 alcove as the enclosure (reinforced concrete/brick construction), 4" baffle, 10" port tuned to 22Hz. We tried other post tuning, and this sounded best. It is driven by a Samson pro amp pushing ~800w through a digital EQ into a ~100dB sensitive subwoofer. It can literally take the garage door off its hinges.

^ I agree. Elegant, but clean. Very nice.
