When the room was finished about eighteen months ago I posted some pictures, though the thought occurred that the majority of the AV gear has changed, and all the cables tidied up, keeping signal and mains as far apart as space allows.

If the pictures are too big, I apologise, I have no idea how to re-size them!

The pictures look a bit dark; perhaps I should have turned the lights on!

Or how to post them, apparently....

RE: Your system

It would seem. I'm copying the tag from photobucket, so perhaps you could tell me where am I going wrong? I also see no way of editing the post, though can see how replies can be edited.

There are three dots in an ellipsis, if we're being smart-arses...

RE: Your system

From photobucket, just delete [IMG] at the start and [/IMG] at the end. The image will come up in the preview if it's worked. It will resize automatically.

Only the last post can be edited, so you'll have to put the images in a new post.

RE: Your system

Ah, thank you both for your help. It is a little on the poorly-lit side.

I know I'm biased, but I never tire of looking at the rack. Townshend's engineering is exquisite.

Lovely room, thoughtfully set up. And you're right, the rack is stunning!

RE: Your system

Thank you. The nice thing about extending (as opposed to moving) is being able to build the room around HI/AV duties, no fireplace in the wrong place. Or at all, as it happens. I had a separate mains spur and switchless sockets put in, but of course have no way of knowing what difference they make in isolation because the listening environment is completely different.

RE: Your system

Nice to see some really tidy cabling behind your racks (pet hate) - looking great 12th.

RE: Your system

Thanks for the kind comments. The cable ties have really tidied things up, as has the 30p piece of plastic from B&Q's plumbing section that covers the hole in the wall where the AV cables emerge.
