Dedicated AV room
Step 1 - OLED on the wall.
Step 2 - Moving the Magico S3s. The old crate system is mind-boggling $&#%. Crossing the fingers S3s survive the move today. Movers are trying to figure out as I write this. I gave up last night and it’s in their hands now.
Mike, why aren’t you in CA again?

Re: Dedicated AV room
Would looking at the unpacking instructions in the manual help? Follow the directions in reverse?

I did. But it’s very difficult to screw from the speaker bottom to the crate. Each needs 4 screws and I got stuck after one in. Can’t find the others using my hands in that tiny space at the bottom where you can’t see. I do know the new crate for S3 mk2 is much better and you just roll in and out the speakers on wheels.
Edit: I just looked it up the manual again. Somehow I didn’t have the same foams, mine don’t look like the one in the pic. Hmm..oh well, too late.

Re: Dedicated AV room
Good luck. I am dreading the day I have to move my S5 MK2, even though I still have the shipping crates.

Re: Dedicated AV room
Hi Mike or Joe, would you mind moving this thread under appropriate forum? I just notice it’s under Magico again, which keeps happening whenever I use tapatalk on the phone.

Looking good! What is your seating arrangement in the room? Are you planning on any acoustic treatments?

I upgraded the power supply on my Gigafoil v4 to a Weiss PSU 102. It’s very nice step up. But with the new model, you’re looking at $2000 before even investing in a SOTA linear power supply.
