Description

1-06-2024....A little over a year ago I picked up the Rockport Arrakis 2 speakers and CH Prcecision M1.1 Mono blocks. Also "newer" to my system is the Allnic L10000 preamp and Nordost Odin power cords, and I added some more acoustic treatments to the walls. The room is serviced by a dedicated Equitech sub panel with seven dedicated lines feeding the room with balanced power.

The recent addition of these little plug in wall conditioner/filters from Nordost and the Puron are very worthwhile tweaks.

8-19-2015....System totally rebuilt from ground up. Moved to a larger room in basement. Room is 18'x 31' with 10' ceilings with seven dedicated circuits feeding into a dedicated wall mounted Equi=Tech subpanel.

4-30-2019.... Finally added proper room treatments focussing mostly on diffusion. All products from GIK Acoustics.

I look forward to following your progress with room treatments in a living area. I hope to build our family's dream house in a couple of years and to have a system open to the kitchen as yours is (we all gravitate toward the kitchen). I realize sonics may suffer, but I fear that a system would be underutilized by us if it was in a man cave.
