I had some free time last weekend, so I figured I might as well take some photos of my system. Sayang din yung sticker. hehehe.

Listener's perspective (Sf Gravis right behind the Tono 300B amp at center).

But most of the time, I listen to my system in the dark.

Very nice system Racio!!!! pwede bang akin na lang ang plaka mong dimeola, laughlin and delucia :lol: paborito ko yang album na yan........I can just imagine the sound of that record in your system, listening in the dark with lights provided by your gear...I have to say its the ultimate trip.......

VEry nice shots as well!!!galing!!

BEAUTIFUUUUUUUUUUUL!!!

Great gears... great shots!!! Magazine quality!! :twisted:

Qs Sir Racio, Does those clamps on your tubes benefit sonic quality? What camera are you using?

Galing ng effects nung "lift off"! Like Sir arnoldc's questions, is it manipulated? ;)

It ain't molested at all pare. hehe. This is a photog's trick shot I picked up from reading all those photo magazines. You simply zoom out before the shutter closes. I also like the effect.

Hey hein, those are VDH's Revelation speaker cables 5 AWG (right five gauge). Light red ang color niyan actually pero nagparang orange because of the lighting.
