L-R:
Jon Wong, Lawrence Sng, Nautilus, TKsCorner
TKsCorner's listening room, with 3 speakers standing side by side. A Loth-X Ion 4(?), Fostex full-range driver horn and the Quad ESL 63. The Marantz CD-17 is on the rack. Resting on top of it is a Denon AC-3 decoder currently used as a pre-amp... though TKsCorner usually bypasses this and uses his Marantz built-in volume.
Tell-tale signs showing that Joe Lee had visited TKsCorner before... ; ) As you move up (tube, jade ring, crystal), these tweaks are supposed to improve higher and higher frequencies... you'll have to ask TK to explain to you in detail...
A tube is perched atop his Fostex horn. According to TK, this one tightened the bass (gives new meaning to the term "tube-trap")... hmm... I am still skeptical though... ;P
TKsCorner's listening companion??
Antique Sound Lab 300B monoblock.
IA closer look at the classic Quad ESL 63, and his Fostex horn.
TK's Vandersteens HT Fronts. The teddy bear hung from the stand extends the soundstage to the left... and acts as a bass trap to absorb bass... hahaha... now if only it were THAT simple!
TK's
home theatre system showing a scene from Gladiator. His fireplace
is custom-built to measurements for his TV ("So I can prevent
myself from upgrading to a bigger TV", TK jokes).
Nothing
special here? His centre speaker is placed on top of Qi Cones, reducing
cabinet colourations in the dialogue.
