@tonydennison no worries, haha.
Wall outlets
Hey everyone, don’t kill me I know it’s been talked about a bit. I’m am currently about to upgrade my wall outlet. Commercial vs Audio outlets. The general consensus is commercial hospital outlets would work but they can strip the coating off our nice power cables. I have talked a bit with @audphile1 on this matter. Furutech has my attention. I have considered upgrading my power cable to the Furutech DPS 4.1 cable and get a Furutech outlet with the same finish. A friend of mine is an electrician and has offered to install a new outlet behind my rack. He said I could pay with a case of beer. Haha. Sorry if I started a new 🔥🔥🔥. The forum is fun, there is far more knowledge here than we are going to find anywhere else IMO. Also I finally got my virtual system up for anyone to take a look. Thanks everyone

@pinthrift I am pretty set on the furutech, I gotta get my buddy to come over soon. We both have been pretty busy lately. |
@vthokie83 I like warm sounding, I like the gold but I don’t want it to be to much for my system. Rhodium seems like the safer bet right now. |
@kota1 the bass traps just got here yesterday. I have considered pulling the speakers a little closer to the side walls to see how that sounds. I have not had a chance to do the chair yet. If you check out my system you can see my sons knees on the left side of the picture haha. I also have some GIK acoustic 6a alpha panels to put behind the couch, then I plan on pulling the couch out a little more. |
@kota1 they are 6 inches from the back wall at the moment and 2 inches from the side walls. Reason being is the outlet for my power cable on the right side are in the way. That’s the reason to go forward in having a new outlet installed, that and it will look cleaner too. It’s going to take some time to get it all dialed in. I didn’t order all the acoustic treatment at the same time either. Trying to take it a little slow and smart. It’s been fun, at times I wanna pull my hair out too. Haha. Thank you for the comments on looks ha. |
@tonydennison did you mean to ask me how I set up a sub ? I don’t currently have one… |
@lak I agree with you. @audphile1 has recommended the same ones too. There are fixes for things here and there but likely cost more in the long run vs just doing it right the first time. |
@mahgister how much was it to do that ? |
@vair68robert no worries, it’s hard to keep quiet sometimes. I do appreciate the apology, not everyone does that. |
@lak I don’t know of any wife that would go for that red… lol |
@erik_squires don’t get me started…. That’s a whole different forum. Lol. |
@kennymacc thanks for the feedback. There are a lot of options these days. |
