Nice room darthlaker! How big is this new room? What about the Furutech diffusers? Still using them?
I like the Green apple.

I did not know that Furutech made diffusers.
Do you send DSD files to the Puccini player through the Channel D software? If "yes", I would like to hear your thoughts on how the same music sounds on SACD disc Vs DSD version.

milpai

That is some "heavy weight" system!
Have you thought about room treatments? Looks like your setup is in a dedicated room. I envy your components :-)
