I don't have any pics to share, but I have Maggie 3.6Rs in the front and 1.6QRs in the rear, which are all driven by Bruno Putzey's UcD (Class D) based amps - 400W/channel. For handling the low end, I have a self-built infinite baffle subwoofer built into the attic/ceiling with four custom eighteen inch drivers, which are powered by Crown K2 amps (also Class D).
Hi Dean - Things got busy around here and I got behind on this thread, so now I'm trying to catch back up.
I wish I felt that I could share pictures taken in my home, but that ain't gonna happen. My wife would skin me alive.
A big infinite baffle sub should be a nice match for the Maggie's. I'd like to hear the setup.

You could decorate your office to some extent. Note the clean desk
I have a sign that was made for me by some underlings - it says "Office of Maximum Entropy". My desk was (and still is) way more cluttered than yours was. I also have a sign that says "A clean uncluttered desk is a sign of a sick mind".

If your father is pickey about his audio, then he might want to consider using his old turntable, and a software package called DART (Digital Audio Restoration Technology). If he's not so picky, he'd probably be satisfied with the ION.
I actually have DART plus two "exotic" turntables, and an ION. I use the ION for digitizing recordings that predate the RIAA, and it's more than good enough for that kind of transfer. Using the ION is so easy, a caveman could do it.

how can you moderate like that
J/K
Hahaha, well, the main thing that kept me out of this thread was all the time I spent reading the posts on S2000 Talk. It takes a while to check all the threads there.

I also have some large Magnepans (MG3A's) in front of our 'mixed use' stereo & HT setup, powered by a bridged Citation 7.1 amplifier.
Flanking the MG3A's are (4) Tube Audio Design SW-150 powered subwoofers, wired as stereo pairs.
To stay on topic, I have recently integrated a computer into the system running Windows Media Center. I'm no computer geek, but so far I'm having a bit of fun with it all. If it wasn't a hobby though, it would probably be too much fussing around with things for most folks.
