I've pretty much every audio thing I have ever wanted and more. I could use one more PowerBase, could put either one of my CSP2+ and the ZP3 on it or both CSP2+ on it. And I want two more AC-12 power cords to complete my main system with those cords.

If you've read my posts, you know I'm a firm believer that the room is as important as the gear you put into it.

My list for dedicated room:

Dedicated Power - I'm even considering running the same wire the Zen Styx are made from between the breaker box and dedicated outlet.

Lots of wood! I like a very live but controlled room. I plan on thick carpet with good padding, well placed broadband and bass absorbers, and lots of hardwood diffusers!

Low noise floor, both acoustically and electrically - so heavy, well insulated walls, windows plugged, insulated (diffused) ceiling, and the aforementioned Faraday Cage. :D

Wrap it up with a comfy chair and Decware gear and I'm all set! Grin

I no longer own a home (selling mine for three times what I paid for it lessens the blow) and can't adapt or adjust my room. So. . . I put anything along those lines off my list.

I bought my current (first) home, a few months before the market crashed. I'm at least 30k under-water...so I'm going to be here a while...I might as well enjoy it...

Well, I had to move across the country, from Texas to Ohio, to help my parents, who aren't in very good shape, stay in their home. I'm renting a town home here, lots of stuff in boxes. My house in Austin was paid for for five years and sold before the listing hit the web. Location, location, location--I was where lots wanted to be, just north of the University.
