hello. some small desk speakers would be nice, as to just have them for variation but i simply don’t need a pair, but a pair of speakers dedicated for the living room would be really nice and ive been eyeing the kef wireless 2 for a long long time, active as im more of a headphone guy, i have enough with mixing and matching the gear for my headphones but have understanding for those who like doing that for both of their systems.
no spacers under the computer and it is indeed right on the ground but it breathes just fine with the delidded CPU i have installed which dropped the temps around 15-20c after delidding.
i don’t see any other purpose to have it on top of the desk other than for the looks of it or just to show off a bit, which i used to do, i built it myself and enjoyed the looks very much, nowadays i’m more into clean minimalistic ITX chassies so thats my next whenever i do another build, i dust it maybe twice a year inside and vacuum the filter about the same, fan speed is a big player in dust accumulation but i havent had a dust issue with this system as the fans only run around 300-800 rpm depending on heat, 400-600rpm for the most part
the CPU never goes much over 85c no matter what games are running, it’s air cooled and always very quiet and having it below the desk the noise is even less
Not sure this counts as not strictly a desktop set up but more a bedside rig as this is my only option for the foreseeable.(Mrs has Alzheimer’s)
All cables are routed round the back to avoid cluttering up the limited space and the extension cable is held by a magnetic so if I roll over it just pulls off the magnet rather than breaking something or yanking the whole set up onto the floor.
I’m not sharing my WFH office setup - too much work stuff strewn about, but it is pretty much the same as the primary desk except E30 DAC, Atom Amp, Sivga Phoenix and a Cambridge Audio 2.1 speaker/sub setup.
2 ch area of the man cave also not shown since the scope is desktop setups.
took some time to clean up and i feel much happier with where it is now, altough a pc holder below my standing desk would be ideal, would have had my sound system attatched beneath the table as well so if anyone have any suggestions for that then that would be appreciated
Yep, three flavours,
Wharfdales 12.2 , warmest and smooth
Klipsch, detailed
Br03, fun v shaped, plus they are closest to the wall for are the front ported first and more room as they move out.
its set up so it all switched and can also pre out the tube amp to the speakers if wanted.
