Looks good. Love the 2 channel setup with tubes and vintage Pioneer receiver. I'm in the process of working on my 2 channel setup with tubes. How do you like those monitor audio speakers?

Thank you! The RS8s are pretty much in your face, I'm looking to tame the harshness of the tweeters with room treatments still, but imaging is very nice with these speakers and its very clear and forward. I'm still actually trying to get used to them

Cool! Let us know if the treatments actually take out the harshness if not, perhaps a change in pre/pro or receiver(just thinking out loud )?

But anyways, great system and ambiance

Yea. I was wondering about setting up something like that for weeks now. No one said it was possible without running 2 separate wires. I would changed out the speaker wires as it wouldn't be 2 difficult but prefer not to do that as I didn't want to run surround sound off the tube amp. Thanks again Vega!
