No neat and tidy room here. My listening room doubles as a workshop for my restorations. Not the full inventory but got 3 speakers up and running today.

Chris, what are those ones in the second photo?

 

They look interesting.

Here are a few updated pics of my system.
Still trying to get the speakers positioned properly.
I removed the corner tube traps, per MBL's suggestion.
Added the Symposium Ultra platforms. Audioquest William Tell Zero/Bass BiWire cables.

Finally taking the plunge into network streaming, with this EMM Labs NS1.
Proprietary optical cable to my DV2 Preamp/DA.

Interesting choice, how’s the sound quality?

Something I was watching on TV last night got me in the mood for a bit of evening Dire Straits listening, so started with my second favourite Dire Straits album, which is an original UK pressing under Polygram Australia. I'm still waiting for MoFi to repress this in a 45rpm remastered version, but I must say, this pressing is pretty bloody impressive though.:thumb:

Buddy is really a bit big for a lap dog, but he doesn't know that.xD

How are the MBL's sounding - meeting expectations?

Thanks, Guys.

Current positioning is :
47" out from Front wall
40" from side wall
Spacing is 105" (approx. equilateral triangle listening position)
Speakers are toed-in to face listener.

A couple of things that helped with bass response was :
Plugging amps directly into wall outlet.
Removing corner tube traps.
Switching speaker jumper to Attack position.

Overall imaging is getting better, as well as the lower bass response.
I do have to admit I miss the incredible low end foundation of my past Evolution Acoustics MM3 speakers, with their internal (4) 15" subwoofers.
At a later date I may explore incorporating 1 or 2 subwoofers to satisfy my itch.
More to come later!
