HG Rosewoods Part 3
Another upgrade. Axiom has a new Rosewood so I've upgraded my speakers at the same time as changing the finish. The only speakers that I have now from my original system are my 2 M80's serving duties as my A side surrounds.
So now my system is composed of:
Fronts: LFR's V3 (can be classified as V4)
Center: VP180 V4
Side surrounds: A - M80's V2
B - QS8's V4
Rear surrounds: QS8's V4
Front Subwoofers: EP800's V4
Rear Subwoofer: EP500 V4
Powering 1 LFR and the VP180: Axiom ADA1500-8
Powering 1 LFR and 1 rear surround: Axiom A1400-8
Powering the rest of the surrounds: Denon POA-A1HDCI
Pre Pro: Denon AVP-A1HDCI
Monitor: 60" Pioneer Kuro PRO-141FD
Universal player: OPPO BDP-83
Telus Optic TV
Apple TV
Shoot me if I think about any more upgrades. I've also got to think about what I should do with my M80's. Upgrade, leave them as is or get rid of them.

Nothing beats listening to Rush on Axioms You meant, "Nothing beats listening to Axioms on Rush," right? Canadians have lots of excuses, er, umm, reasons, JP. You do not.
Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.

Scott is correct. It's a cork floor.

Simply amazing Mel. Did you notice any changes going from carpet to the cork flooring?

Simply amazing Mel. Did you notice any changes going from carpet to the cork flooring? If there was a difference I didn't notice it. If my room was a little bigger, maybe the flooring would have made a difference, but I'm squeezed in pretty good floor space wise.

I was thinking of what to do my floors with and Cork does seem like a great option. Can you tell me more about what sort of cork you used. Was it a floating floor (engineered) or a glue down.
I am lucky to have the Cork House right around the corner from where I live and they seem to be the top of all cork flooring. I am interested in what you installed as a real live personal experience is by far better than any sales person telling you.

It's a floating floor Matt. What I got was:
TORLYS
Burl Natural
3' x 7.5" plank
One plus or minus however you want to look at it is, the floor vibrates a bit when the subs are doing their thing. :0
