Great setup, nice and clean. I really wanted a Pioneer tv, however my bank account just didn't agree with me

Like he said! Am jealous of that TV.

Tomscave · 04-10-2009, 05:43 AM

Thanks for the compliments. I sold my Sony KDS-R60XBR2 to get this tv. I always wanted a plasma.

Rded, you're using Nordost Dawns as your wires and Dynaudio speakers, and you're jealous of our 5020s?

Modified in what way?

The way you have your B-3's are very interesting.

I removed the stock feet from the Sub-12 and added a base plate (3/4" birch plywood) with 1 1/2" dowel spacers (copied SVS sub design). It definitely enhanced the bass output. I built the speaker stands myself with 3/4" birch plywood, same width and depth as the B-3's and 30" high. I also made the base plates of the stands match the design of the sub base.

Very clean and very nice setup! You are a good craftsman those stands look awesome! Love the TV wish I have a pioneer haha. You should update your pictures in your HT gallery BTW.

Excellent job, nice and clean, which I luv. I am digging those stands, and there are now sooo many here that I have seen with them, that I have to join the fun too. Especially because I have cermanic flooring in my basement, and not a rug. That Pio' is gorgeous, and at the time, it was too much $ for me, but if I was in the market now, diffrent story. Great job!

STARKILLER--1138 · 04-10-2009, 06:14 PM

Definitely very nice and clean. JWD!

Tomscave · 04-10-2009, 07:32 PM

Thanks for the compliments everyone. It's definitely an upgrade bug, especially once you start looking at other peoples gear.
