Tour the AUDIOPHILIAC's system, AND his new listening space!

[@SteveGuttenbergAudiophiliac]

The aluminum pieces on the Cornwalls are Totem Acoustic Beaks. They may, or may not improve the sound.

I don’t believe beaks do anything to the sound :)

[@benicetall]

Just picked up a pair of mid 70’s corn walls with external Altec midrange . I will rebuild the crossover and see how it goes . Looking to try Decware soon

[@benicetall]

@GeneralCurtis3LeMay I am not sure how old are the caps . I am getting new caps from critesspeakers.com. See how it does to the sound. Thanks

[@yogarl7]

Steve, you're simply one of a kind! You bring so much of yourself, your heart, your love for what you do, to all of us...and we appreciate it, "10" fold! Beautiful × 100! Your space has such a great vibe to it, with plants and hand woven, wool textiles. Rugs are heaven, and get along with audio beautifully. "Yes" to 'Rugs meet Sound.' Cheers! ~ R

[@rndm4642]

Thanks for letting us into your home Steve. You are truly a gem to the world and the audiophile community.

[@Oneness100]

How? He knows nothing about room acoustics. Judging from watching this video, he is doing almost nothing right in terms how how his room is set up for optimal sound quality. Here's a video of a TRUE audiophile room/system. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m36vcmieZdObbtU

I like how you have all this insane gear and a huge LP collection but the background of your videos is usually a messy hallway with nothing flashy visible. It shows where your priorities are and that you really do all of this out of passion over vanity. You're a cool guy :)

[@gil3green]

What I like is the real world set up in your listening room. Also the similarities we share in the listening area remind me of when I visit my sisters and see the likeness of some items that we share that were never spoken about.

[@neilfisher7999]

Great job Steve! it looks much more organized than before. It is difficult when you have so much stuff to make it look "pretty" so what you have done is make it more functional and usable. Whenever my wife complains to me about all my gear, I just make her watch one of your videos. LOL! She also loves your channel.

[@steveschermerhorn773]

My wife, especially, likes the Audiophiliac's shirts! And, so do I.

[@davidmiller1534]

Glad you spent a few minutes discussing acoustical treatments to absorb and diffuse sound reflections. A lot of the rooms you see posted by end users have great equipment placed in environments that sub optimize performance substantially. As noted, a large rug placed in front of the main speakers is a no brainer.

[@roberte.andrews4621]

Your new quarters are exciting and I wish you and Mrs. Audiophiliac many, many happy moments together. You have a large and loyal following out here and we all wish you and the audio industry you also serve great prosperity. We are fortunate in America to have such choices from which to choose. Plurality and relative market freedom, should never be taken for granted. Some countries have punitive tariffs, which make music listening difficult or at least an exercise only for the wealthy. Competition is a good thing. It keeps us on our toes and promotes innovative concepts which benefit mankind. Cooperation, which in nature is called a symbiotic relationship, was the original 'win-win' situation. Life on a shrinking planet will throw us enough problems without us sitting around and thinking up ways to belittle or frustrate our fellow human beings. Perhaps in adversity we can come together as one big, happy family. Long life and my best to you all.

[@stereo8893]

Wonderful show Steve. Love what you've done with your space. Thanks for letting us see what your setup looks like.

I found Wharfedale Diamond 3 and NAD amp, because of Steve's recommendation for vintage gear, so I started my journey here in Bulgaria (not as easy to find vintage stuff here, as in US and UK).

[@michaelfitzgerald8835]

Steve,I’m so happy to see your “new” room ! From our limited outside view your old arrangement looked rather claustrophobic and frankly smacked a little of ‘audio hoarder’ and I worried a for your and even more for Mrs Audiophilliac’s quality of life. So to now see space, light, air and actual windows! 😆 makes me very glad for you guys. You both deserve to live in a pleasant open environment whilst enjoying great music, well done! And please let’s hear from the Mrs about the new space, all the best to you both.

[@Eschew_Obfuscation]

Your listening areas look great Steve! I can tell you put a lot of effort into them. Thank you for sharing. You’ve inspired me.

[@ChristyOFaghan]

George Mitchell has that timeless quality, modern Blues that could as easily have just stepped out of the 20s, but also resonating with a much more primal time in music's history where a man sat over his fire with no more than a string and a his voice

Stunning transformation of space and gear, Steve. I see you have the new Dylan 1970 and the old Dylan Greatest Hits v.1 lp. That old Greatest has a special place for me. I like the v.2 with Watching the River Flow that never made any regular lp which I thought was pretty cool. Surprised by your love of the Klipsch RPs given the amount of speakers you listen to. They must be pretty dang awesome. Great natural light in that apartment now. Can't wait to make a cup of tea and listen to some good music!

[@alm5693]

Thanks for the room tour. Your remodeled space is so appealing and your equipment is all drool-worthy. One thing you didn't talk about but was interesting to me was your collection of power strips. I'd fallen down that KZbin rabbit hole a couple days ago and was kind of reassured to see that what you are using looked fairly off-the-shelf. Could you please consider doing a video on what you use to connect 300 pieces of audio equipment to 4 duplex wall outlets?

[@warrenmullett]

Thanks for sharing ! I’ve been patiently waiting to view your listening rooms !

[@DavidWalker1]

Sure, Steve, the listening space is terrific. Well done. The Klipschs and headphone tree and record spines are fine; these are, after all, the hallowed record spines of the world's greatest audio reviewer. But wat we all really want to see is ... ... Your Shirt Closet. So colourful. So huge. And so far, so hidden.

Very nice incorporation of your systems Steve. it's so nice to see your work and pleasure spaces after all these years. Congrats on your growing channel. If you can, consider having your TV mounted to the wall. It will improve your soundstage and etc greatly . You can still use any treatments you'd like to cover it when you are not using it.

[@user-od9iz9cv1w]

Space is looking great. Cool way to have 3 systems in one space. I used the towel suggestion from an earlier video and its a winner. My listening room is 20x25 in the basement. Wall to wall carpeting over concrete. The towels on top of the carpet did sharpen the image. The other suggestion you made really helped as well. Decoupling the speakers from the concrete/carpet floor really sharpened the image. I have big heavy speakers on casters. Just putting rubber floor protectors under the wheels did the trick. I also tried thick foam which worked initially, but less as it compressed over time. I will get a nice carpet with thick pad to put over the wall to wall in the listening area.

I've been looking forward to a video like this since you started talking about being in a new space. I would not have an easy time of giving up the Cornwalls when the time comes (I own a pair of 1981 Cornwalls). I hope your next review pair of big speakers are as engaging!
