A recent kitchen remodel included adding an espresso bar and matching cabinets in the family room. The cabinets are a little larger and allowed me to add a CD transport though with all my CD’s saved as lossless files I rarely need to use it. The new doors are mesh and there are a pair of AC Infinity Aircom T10’s and a couple Multifan’s to keep things cool. All my amplifiers are in a cabinet I built below the family room in the crawlspace. With new furniture I need to run Anthem Room correction again for the STR and Audyssey for the Denon in Home Theater Bypass. This is a compromise that both my wife and I are happy with. I make all the choices in the Basement theater.
