Well, since the last idea I had for the community crashed, burned and the ashes blew away in the wind. So for shits and giggles I’m giving 24hrs to post basically whatever.

No NSFW, or other stuff that breaks the basic rules of lemmy, just dont be me…dont be a dick.

I’m posting this pic cause im wondering if the speakers are overkill? whats not shown is the 4speaker centre channel, or the exact matching rear speakers that are the same as the fronts. Fine. You twisted my rubber arm, I’ll clean and take a current pic and post it in a bit.

Lets see your setups…the ‘battlestation’ community here on lemmy is just a reddit repost bot and wont let original content.

    Speakers overkill? Is that even possible? (Don’t mind the mess. What’s not shown is the center and surrounds. I have the left side grills off to show the speakers themselves.)

      Not too bad. I’ve got a pair of GENELEC 1032bs, a pair of 8351Bs, a matching W371A subwoofer, and a pair of Eve Audio SC701s.

      Somewhere around 3000 watts of combined bass/mid/treble amplification.

      I think I’m cheating though because I work for the world’s greatest electronic musical instrument company.

          Nice, I’ve got a similar situation for my bedroom stereo. Thrifted vintage Fisher(I think) speakers (3-way, 15” woofers), Sony surrounds, rears, center, and subwoofer with an Onkyo receiver. Maybe spent $120 total on it all when I lived in the States.

          All of my battle station audio equipment has now paid for itself though. Well, work gave me the 1032b pair since they upgraded their standard reference speaker to the GENELEC Ones. They’re only two-way though and for my side hustle in music production, I really needed those three-way 8351Bs.

          most of my stuff has been frankensteined together too. even the receiver was free cause the A+B speaker buttons were buggered along with the volume. i have not touched the volume knob in years, and just soldered the A side on permanently

    Speakers aren’t overkill, but my god, put up some sound panels and bass traps. Resonance in that room has to be bananas.

    I like it. It looks set up perfectly for your particular preferences. All anyone could want.

    Where is this setup? Those concrete walls looks study

    I’ve always wanted ginormo speakers but can’t have them because of living with others

      Southern Alberta, had it down there to give me more room in the living room, but have a roommate down there now. Making another post with the current setup.

          Also, I’m using the “voyager” app on an iPhone. So, maybe that’s the problem? I have an android tablet with a different app. I’ll try it in a min. if I can figure out how to turn off gps tags on photos. It’s a new tablet.

          Problem uploading image: The string did not match the expected pattern… Please try again.

          sounds like a lemmy issue, wonder if anyone else is having problems too.

          ya’ll are so good, i never need to look at the mod tools…ill see if anything there might be causing it.

          Zero tools that i can find, no options other than only let mods post, and change up the sidebar. Maybe i’m just dumb and cant find it…

    I have a pair of Alec Lansing Expressionist Bass 2 speakers as my original speakers, then I disassembled a broken soundbar and added the speakers (and subwoofer) from it into my setup. More recently I added a pair of bookshelf speakers, so my current setup consists of a subwoofer, two woofers, two mid/bass drivers, eight mids, and four tweeters
