According to the site he is “one of a young breed of audiophile who represents the future of the hobby.” Indeed. "I wish I could score everything for horns." - Richard Wagner.

Every single time I hear/read some one say "My Reference Room" automatically come to my mind something very professional made, a like mini concert hall, a made on purpose dedicated audio room. Almost all the times it is just some room of their house, usually their living room, with some audio/acoustic products around. There is nothing wrong with that of course, and it is a interesting way to do the things, but I do not feel a shared room could be called "Reference Room" in audio (or anything) because, to me, a "Reference Room" for audio purposes were something built with audio-only in mind. I mean the best possible acoustic ambient for the purpose, without anything inside it does not need to have - ever if still a working in progresses. Cheers! Think for yourself, do not be sheep.
