Ron's Speaker, Turntable, Power and Room Treatment Upgrades
- Thread starter Ron Resnick
- Start date
I presently am forum shopping for a more favorable opinion. : )
Thank you, but I do not use Photobucket or Instagram or any of those things.
No problem Ron. Keep in mind photobucket can be set up private. And just put pics of the project there and your good.
If you reduce the resolution enough to fit them here the quality sucks bad. If want to send them to me I can post them for you, PM me an email address if you want.
Cheers
Ron, I simply uploaded them from my iPhoto images on my iMac computer. I don't know about resolution, but they look fine in my system thread. They are large images with plenty of resolution. You can check out the link to my system below.
All the pictures on my system thread are file-compressed, from 5 MB to ca. 350-500 kB. I think they look fine. At the 1 x magnification they open up on the thread, and even at somewhat higher magnifications, they are indistinguishable from the original. Just duplicate your file, save as Jpeg and while doing so choose a "lesser quality" option with the cursor until you are around the 500 kB mark.
Those are very nice room dimensions.
Looking forward to see and read about this exciting journey you started.
Just because I do not like to take "no" for an answer, and because any great hobby worth doing is worth "over-doing," I asked a structural engineer to analyze the load bearing beams holding up the two floors of my house to estimate the actual cost to push outside by 5' the 14' high wall behind my listening position. The answer came back "more than $200,000." So, finally, I am giving up this particular room improvement idea. The listening room will remain 24' 8" long.
$200,000!
Now Ron, if you work this right, you can get your next spanky upgrade with the line "but I saved $200K by NOT rebuilding the back wall! The amps are only $65K. We're still $135K ahead!"
(If I tried this at home my wife would find something to bonk me over the head. YMMV!)

The room appears to be very nice as is... But this post reminded me of what I told my wife the other day in my typical sarcastic way, when she was pestering me about decor and such: maybe we should just raise the ceilings instead
I wouldn't worry too much Ron, you have a beautifully sized room and those high ceilings are to kill for.

Dear Sammy, Thank you for your suggestion on the Furutech. I thought the GTX-R does not have an isolated ground? My electrician was suggesting Hubbell double cryogenically treated outlets because they have an isolated ground to facilitate an isolated and "star" grounding implementation.

I have 11 Furutech Rhodium gold AC outlets in my room each on its own dedicated line. They are terrific indeed
