The Classe gear is on top only temporarily. Once I get my DAC the CAP 2100 will go in the open compartment of the rack and the AV Receiver will go in the glass enclosure of the rack. The rack has a back opening so it is ventilated enough. The 4LCR center speaker will be on top of the HiFi rack. Will post few more pics once I am done with the current set of changes.

Very neat set up!  You haven't mentioned the B&W PV1 s/w (or is it the newer PV1D?).

Plus the guitar of course - I've found tuning to an open D or something like that gives a more tuneful resonance on good subwoofer moments  Smile

Thank you! It is a 7 year old PV1.. Thinking of upgrading to PV1D but not too sure whether it justifies the extra price. The only nice thing could be I can have the new one in Matt White!

Beautiful and simple...The Tannoys looks ever so classy. The nice thick rug helps a lot with the acoustic I suppose... Just wonder, what`s with the lights at the rear of the TV. Looks like Philips`s ambilight but it is not.Then what is it ? Smile

Thank You! On the back of the TV is 10 Pounds worth LED strip with a switch. The purpose is to have the back wall lit during the night so that the strain on the eyes is minimized (A dull lit wall on the backdrop acts as a reference to reduce the shock to the eyes with too dynamic light changes in a movie. I used to have a small table light turned towards the black wall but now the LED light is doing the same more economically and unobtrusively!

RE: My System - 2012 (onwards?)

Also I see you are running the PV1 sub in your system - I would be very interested to know how well this intagrates with the Tannoys. Id actually dismissed this sub when searching and Ive now narrowed it down to either the Velodyne SPL1200 Ultra and the MA GXW15, However ive not spoken to anyone who has experience with the PV1 and Revolution Signatures...

Very nice WishTree, how would you discribe the sound you are getting from the Classe/Tannoy combo?

Also, i wouldn't put Classe in the cabinet either!  Smile

I do not really remember what exactly it meant but I remember faced similar error during my initial upload. The way I do the upload is, host the pics on picassa (or any other internet site) and then paste the link. Then the pics get scraped.
