If there is one thing you could change in your current system. What would it be?

@jsalerno277  I walked into a young lady's house in Buffalo sometime around 2020..., full blown house, you could crank it up to the clouds and not bother anyone..

i said, "how much?"..and she says, "80 thousand dollars!"

NYC is a .....well,. it becomes more of a psychological condition over time. Even the thought of moving a block can become very very scary.

However, living in the overpriced and overrated suburbs of NYC, with extraordinary real estate and education taxes, my listening room in my small home is the untreated living room, on a suspended floor system. If I move out of the area in retirement or otherwise hit the numbers big and stay, I would have at least have a dedicated treated trapezoidal listening room, possibly designed ground up with a solid foundation, no parallel surfaces, vaulted ceiling rising front to back, and four dedicated 20 amp lines from a separate breaker. Oh … to sleep, to sleep, per chance to dream (note I left out the die at my age).

@deep_333 Yes, the Great Lake region of NY offers much better value.  Had a job opportunity at B&L Rochester in the late 90’s that I turned down and was amazed at the value.  I would have my room there, plus lake front and pool.   In-law family ties prevented the move.  I do not have fear of moving for retirement.  The same family ties are still the issue.  In my area, while not the most dear in the country, real property is over $650 per square foot, and probably average for large city US.  Taxes are an average of $11-12 a square foot and depending on the age and lot size.  Insanity.   The town offers a low cost country club and excellent educational system, but it’s still tax insanity.  It’s time to say arrivederci NY suburbs.  

I would invest in a more powerful power amp for my Maggie 3.7i speakers. Currently using Conrad Johnson solid state amp MM2275, 135 watts per channel.  It does a decent job in a room that is 26 feet by 14 feet.  However, I have read that more powerful amps really make Maggies sing.  Curious if others on here have traded up to more powerful amps for their Maggies and how it worked out.  

@bigtwin them rels 212se got me covered 

@mihorn “Nothing can improve my system sound”

l think 🤔 the only way to improve your system would be to invest in a good pair of syringes. Both in the capable hands of a professional ear hearing physician technician.

After that and from experience, it’s as good as it gets.
 

Twin Syringes are the real deal for the best all round singing and dancing stereo sound.
