    Ha! I did a similar “experiment” using a Shunyata Black Mamba PC* to power my VPI RCM back in the day…it did produce records with “blacker blacks”! 😂

    Here’s a photo…

    *-Actually this photo was just a gag I set up to poke some good-natured fun at the guys at St*ve H*ffman forums who were needlessly obsessing about silly little things that were not practically significant. I tried to impress upon them that in the real world, most of the time, all that really matters is what is practically significant.

    What type of diffusors/deflection are you using behind the Clarisys speakers?

    Batman is my favorite super-hero, though. Particularly Christian Bale's portrayal in the Christoper Nolan series. 👍

    Beautiful room, Florian! Very cozy and inviting.

    Does that giant wood beam across the ceiling cause any acoustic issues?

    Thank you. So far not, but to get the most accurate bass i still use 6 x PSI AVAA Active Bass Traps.
    I am installing new flooring, more power outlets, lightning and acoustic modules next.

    Did you try adding a rug to the room? Or does it sound good with the large hardwood floor?

    It's actually a soft cork floor and it sounds incredible. The ceiling absorption helped a lot.
