Description

My first love is music played on vinyl.All other playback modes are for music collection in "today's" formats. The recent addition of the Sherwood combo allows me the flexibility to keep the "analog" happening while diving into home theater surround sound with my 50-inch Toshiba rptv.8/06 update- Fronts and rears replaced by black/oak trim Maggies.

12/2009 Update:
VHS removed. MG2c's replaced by Focal 716V speakers in rear. MMG's now used in front end with Maggie center.

System edited: Replaced rear Maggies with new MMG's and replaced MG3a's with MG2c's in 2005. This enhanced my bass performance due to better overall power handling by the Sherwood amp.

Very nice set-up, I like the Toshiba. I am curious about your room? It looks like commercial office space. Is it a loft conversion?

Happy listening,

Maggie 1-b is actually MG1 Improved (circa 1981).
