Description

Shangri-La...
A small A/V entertainment room with a Sony TV and a 7.1 surround sound system...
I mostly listen to stereo digital music sweetened up with a tubed PreAmp...

The room is 13'4'' x 23'4" x 8'...
The System consists of:
PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium TubePre (2 channel+sub) with Cifte 12AU7 NOS in first gain stage & Genalex Gold Lion Tubes
McIntosh MC152 SS Amp (2 channel)
Yamaha RX-A850 Pro (the other 5 channels lol)
LG BlueRay Player CD/DVD/BlueRay
Martin Logan ElectroMotion ESL Fronts
Martin Logan Motion C2 Center Channel
Martin Logan Motion 4 Surrounds
Martin Logan Motion 4 (yes, another set of these) Back Surrounds
Martin Logan Dynamo 700 Subwoofer
Audirvana Plus, QoBuz Studio Premier... Streamed from a MacBook Pro, Lumin U1 mini to a Chord Qutest DAC...
Throw rug, base absorbers and other assorted organic materials…
And a Sony TV KDL50W700B

Recently added a GIK Art acoustic panel... Custom image supplied by me of The Great Wave off Kanagawa by Hokusai... It turned out very nice...
I was so impressed with the GIK Art acoustic panel I had another made to cover my Flat Screen TV... Another custom image supplied by me and by Hokusai... Again, it turned out very nice...

I recently removed the Sony TV and added a Samsung The Premiere LSP7T UST Projector and an Elite Screens Aeon CLR3 103"... WOW!!!
Also added a Sony 4k UHD/Blueray/DVD player... Now I have a full 4k/UHD/HDR video signal chain...

I seriously want to listen, hear all there is to say about those electrostatic speakers! Never have I had the opportunity, but for this, I will travel some distance just to preview! I know your highs are untouchable, it's everything else in between that I'm dying to hear!
Good stuff and thank you for this!
 
I'm interested in the thickness of the panels in the corners. And what happens to the sound if you completely remove them from the room.
 
Just added another GIK Art acoustic panel to cover the TV when it is not in use and listening to the two channel system... Its a Nice Piece Of Art and reduces wide band and high frequency smearing... I'll get an image up once I get the stand/bracket squared away in a few days...

A little dark stain and done...

Swapped out the Sony TV for a Samsung The Premiere LSP7T UST Laser Projector and an Elite Screens Aeon CLR3 103"... Anything I say about this combination would be an Understatement...
 
Added an Netgear Nighthawk S8000 streaming network switch and some CAT 8 ethernet cables... Mmm... Crunchy... Cable modem to router, router to switch and switch to audio streamer and switch to UST PJ... Because Maxwell sez why not... Also added a Sony 4k UHD/Blueray/DVD player... Now I have a full 4k/UHD/HDR video signal chain... o_O
