1.)Room, room, room!
2.) SET amp with AC heaters. No PP, no IDHT, and definitely no SS.
3.) Art Deco Era 5 pin triodes circuits for Preamp.
5.) Classic Turn Table (idler drive) with 12 inch tonearms.

yes I have photos but I don't understand how I can post the photos here
I agree with you . my amp also is a Se and I have a 12 arm ( denon ) in my turntable ( Teac TN 4000).
here the photos :
Lots of room tuning objects, tastefully organised.;)
thanks I think that tuning objects are important for the final sound
Totally Agree! In my case, since my room is adequate enough, I never treated the driver's back wall (although I tried). But made sure to have some "stuff" on the front wall.Quote:

Those look very nice! Should sound great.
What are you using for bass? A hidden sub somewhere?
BTW, you may want to have your web guy resize and compress those photos. Even on the page with the small sizes they are very slow to load. No surprise, as they 1.7 megs each! PM me if you have questions.
for the bass I have the bass section of Klipschorn till 190 HZ
Ah, very good. Are the Klipschorns in the corners?
That should be a nice combo.
yes in the corners. One Reimyo Pa-777 for the bass and another Pa-777 for the 604 D in OB in passive biamplification.
Nice amps. :)
I posted also one pic of the Iconic DN604ES1A1 supercrossover that is real marvellous with my Altec 604 D
