Id PM Chris_CDI on the forums here. Some of the custom theater setups he's done and posted here are pretty spectacular. http://www.avforums.co.za/index.php?action=profile;u=351 for example : http://www.avforums.co.za/index.php/topic,16082.0.html

Someone have a link to the speaker build thread? I really want to see how you did those "sonus faber" horizontal lines.

for the bergie with a touch of class...

terrible. nothing that needs watering should ever be that close to my audio equipment. also, my gear is much prettier than flowers. :angel:

damn, i haven't laughed like that in a loooong time  :BWAHAHAH: http://www.watkykjy.co.za/2013/09/geld-koop-nie-vir-n-f*k-klas-nie/ change "*" to "o"

uhm, run that "stacked platter" by me again? how does that work? looks pretty sweet!

is that the AV stand in your avatar?

B&W ASW 610XP, ASW 700, or a PV1 if you can stretch it. Going to a GX100 wouldn't help you. It won't reach low enough for proper electronica listening enjoyment. you'd still need a sub.

That makes it easy, go with the standmounts. You are going to want a sub anyway because of the abundance of low frequency content in electronica, as the floorstanders won't go low enough. It's what i did, and it works for me.

yup, all sony. or sony badged anyway.

GX50's. oooh, that ribbon!!! :rubhands: what kind of music do you mostly listen to? which amp will you be using?

i'm assuming you are talking about this http://www.autostyle.co.za/plasti-wrap-matt-black-spray.html for the cover. very interesting. i'd love to see how it turns out. aren't you afraid it might peel or get hurt accidentally?

awesome. as always, we bow before the master of all things video related  ;D Thanks Ken, i didn't realize the player's video chip would make a visible difference from a 1080p source on 1080p passthrough to a 1080p display.

yah, but if you just want to watch blu-rays, and you bitstream content via HDMI, what's the difference? The AVR/Pre-Pro processes the audio, and your TV will always do a better job processing the video than a normal blu-ray player does, ESPECIALLY 4k, (no processing on HD). so you will...

what receiver do you have and how do you connect to it? cable, settings, etc.

Keep your eyes open for the wharfedale diamonds. those are usually the best bang for buck,

+1 you bought a very nice starter system. spend the next few weeks and months optimizing and tweaking. only then will you know which way to upgrade, and whether an upgrade is even necessary.

Depending on budget, you can leave the sub at first and get it later when you've saved up a bit of cash. the 610 sub is worth about R3k, unless its the XP version, in which case R4k is a good deal.

Of that lot, i'd take the sub and leave the rest. I've never heard of the Tannoy's so i can't comment. There's a set of Jamo speakers in the AVSA classifieds that's a real bargain at R6k. Then Amplihonic (Francois) had a Denon 1910 receiver on here for R1500 last week but it's probably gone by...
