  1. I finished my upstairs setup and have been breaking it in this week.  It sounds fantastic:

    Pro-ject Carbon with 2M Red and Music Hall Cork Mat

    Kenwood KX-49C tape deck

    JVC XL-V112 Cd player

    Yamaha A-S500 Integrated Amplifier

    Pioneer CS-905 Speakers

    The rack:

    bottom: My Cd player and tape deck.  Both were scored at goodwill for 10 bucks each!

    I've been on a screamo binge lately.

    I call this a modern setup even though 3/5 of the components are over 20 years old, simply because it has a modern sound.  The a-s500 is an extremely bright and detailed amp so I picked out some mid 80s pioneer speakers that are plenty warm and also have the added bonus of a HUGE soundstage.  I know the CS-905s are usually thought of as a "party" speaker, but I find the sound quality fantastic for the type of music I listen to (punk/hardcore/metal), the drums sound especially realistic without being harsh.  Plus I tested these puppies against some vintage pairs of infinity, klipsch and KLH, and the Pioneers won out every time.

     

    nice touch on the lion stopper and tsl record.

    also, the record on the right is hot cross no?
