Vinyl Listening Room

[WndrBr3d]

My recent project has been setting up a game/entertainment room in our house. This included a darts board, Mortal Kombat 2 arcade machine and also setting up my neglected Stanton Turntable.

Well... I honestly had nowhere to put my turntable and nothing to power it! I was able to find the $15 cheap pre-amp I picked up off eBay five+ years ago and I used my spare Harman/Kardon AVR7300 to power the two Infinity Speakers (talk about using a cannon to kill a fly)

I decided to give myself a proper vinyl listening system. I upgraded to:

- Jolida JD 202A Tube Amplifier (40wpc to 8ohms)
- Pro-Ject Tube Box II Phono Preamplifier

It sounds -amazing-! I have several Ella and Duke Ellington LP's from the 60's that makes it sound like there's a concert in my house. Seriously amazing stuff. My first venture into the wide world of tube audio has knocked my socks off!

Pictures attached!

Very nice equipment. I'd be inclined tp spread those speakers out a little though.

Space is an issue... as the darts line is right next to it and then next to that is the arcade cabinet

Looks great. But seriously, your speakers need some air!
