With Mallory more mobile every day, I finally made a move I’ve been planning for probably a year and a half.<\/p>\n

If you’ve been to our house, some of your first thoughts are probably:<\/p>\n

1. This guy has speakers in the middle of his living room, he must be crazy!
\n2. And Adrienne puts up with it!<\/p>\n

Tonight I pulled the Monitor Audio RS6s<\/a> out of service from the living room (you see them over to the right in the dining room) and put in place the system I’ve used both as an office system and basement system. These are small NHT M-00 powered speakers plus the S-20 subwoofer. Their size allows them to be placed on the bookshelves. And this way there aren’t large floor-standing speakers in the middle of the floor. Mallory can’t damage them, and they can’t damage Mallory!<\/p>\n

It’s certainly a different sounding system, but I don’t think we’re giving up too much in quality. And I do plan on putting the RS6s back in service elsewhere, though maybe not immediately. I’m not sure we’ll see a return to floor-standing speakers in the living room any time soon (or not-so-soon), but the plan does include custom shelves on both sides of the fireplace. And I do think the Harbeth P3ESR<\/a> would look splendid on top of them…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
