hi all, I havnt been able to find a workshop type system thread so heres mine!  

NADM51 as pre through audioquest sky xlrs to musical fidelity AMS 35P,them to Lenehan s2r speakers through chord signature cables with a velodyn cht15 sub in a 10m x 20m x5m high shed (set up in a 5m corner,underlooking car hoist !).

 

so sound does differ depending if car is up or down throughout the daypost-143213-0-94685100-1403600464_thumb.

Well that's pretty flash for a shed!  :D

 

And I bet it gets things rattling pretty easily...

Mines so good I was going to mention it twice. But then felt that would look like I was rubbing it in!

I'll see your messy multi box, multi cable, NAD/Audioquest/Lenehan/Chord/Velodyne monstrosity and raise it with this:

It not only has a twin cam tape deck (yes, one cassette bay behind the other), but it's own 'subwoofer' capable of not just normal bass like you get with a G clamp modified subwoofer but X bass! And all that bass from only one extra 'slot' loaded, plastic surrounded, 5in driver*

* mine doesn't actually have the 5in speaker in the top any more, was ripped out many years ago so more like ex bass.

Plus it's also much less black than the one in the pic with many years of sawdust giving it a lovely aged patina to match the early 90s styling. You just can't buy that sort of thing!

Anyhow that's my shed system! In all it's glory.

Ah, of course they are!!! My bad!

Sorry, my bad. Thought I'd put my best foot forward here as my inside (or outside, as in outside of the shed) system isn't quite as sophisticated. It has neither a cassette deck nor the famed X bass, not even that 3 band graphic equalizer either! Quite poor actually.

I see your tape deck and raise you this

49 stock commodore speakers currently in progress! Should be a cute little shed system :)

 

Does that mean you're going to need 98 speakers for Stereo?

Just reviving this thread as it came up in discussion the other day.

I will be updating my shed system some day soon once I finish my current boombox project.

In the meantime maybe we can have some more contributions to this thread?

What happened with the super multi speaker box as posted by @@wasthatnormal above?

Did it get finished?

:)

@@shaky But is the cassette section one of those super high quality ones where the cassette ejects slooooowwwwly. That was always a sign that your three-in-one system was of superior quality to the run of the mill, crashbash eject models .................................. :)

I have to mention in my defence, that I collect stuff!. From roadside pickup to e-bay. Rather than have it sit in a cupboard, the audio equipment gets connected up, at whim.

This is my workshop.

A set of IMF ALS40's and a set of Kef concertos.

Kefs are driven by the Luxman setup

ALS40 by a Rotel.

The ALS40 speakers have a really punchy bass, while the Concertos are a bit more balanced

My current (every changing) garage systems.

Seems I have got the pics around the wrong way.

 

Main set up is a Technics SUV4X with STZ11 driving Goodmans Magnums K2`s. Just slid an old PC in to replace my old now dead laptop. (Not a bad thing as I now have a lot more storage space for music files)

 

Other end of the shed is a Rotel 610 driving B&O CX100`s.

 

Not flash but it does the job.

Sheesh, my shed system is quite humble compared to this but shall try and get some pics up. :)

 

mine is an old clock radio....I really should plonk some old car speakers in a box and car sub I have tucked away to make a simple system for the place :)
