On A Budget Home Office

Afternoon,

While technically not a full Mac set-up. But part Mac.

Not photographed are my 4 IBM Servers and 1 HP Procurve 8Port switch under the middle of the desk.

Shot of my Desk.


MacBook in its place.


Triple Monitor Setup. Running on an AMD Eyefinity setup.

If people want to donate to the get me a MacPro go for it.

Under the monitors you can see the 6 external hard drives which are used for my storage.


My Current Movie photos.
I swap them around every now and then. Currently Underworld, Underworld Evolution, The Bourne Trilogy, Original Star Wars Trilogy, Predator and Predator 2.


My Small Bookcase (larger on to the right of the movie posters.


Signed copy of the first book I read of my favourite author.


My small watch collection.
Prized mentioned parts are 2 Omegas (1 Seamaster, 1 Geneve Chromometer) 1 Tag Heuer Carrera Calibre 16).
Can also see other Matthew Reilly Books below.
 
I recently added an Expedit shelf to my living room. There isn't an ikea store nearby, so I ordered it off of eBay. I also added a chair with a "personal table" for working on a laptop or iPad. I prefer the iPad since i can use AirPlay for the headphone setup.



I thought I would use my laptop more with this setup, but the 18 inch screen (it's an HP win7 model) is a bit large for the table.

nice i see ur a man of great taste for sound, monitor speakers, also see some grado headphones and gotta love vinyls. i own monitors aswell but the rs8's for my home theatre same finish. ps is that a macintosh amplifier?
 
I just finished wrapping christmas gifts, but here is my desk at the moment.

Anyone know of a desk mounted arm that can mount the displays? I actually have 3 VESA mount adapters, but can't find a mount.

I know about the monitor in motion site, but I'm not spending $1300 on a mount.
 
extremely cool !

No, its a Marantz 2220B. Right now I am mainly using it for its great tuner, but the headphone output is also nice for using with the Grados. It has a warmish sound that compliments the bright Grado sound. My dad built the wood box for it..the pic I posted before does not do it justice:

I bought a MBP 15 inch to use mainly with the setup. Not my best pic, but you get an idea about how it works in the setup:

PS I bet those RS8s sound fantastic. I love my RS6 speakers.

Have you just daisy chained the monitors together through thunderbolt?

I would just get one mount for the iMac or two cheaper ones for each ACD just to get everything at the same height.

It seems like a MAJOR oversight for Apple to have monitors that are not height adjustable and then make their Imacs and matching ACDs different heights. I have switched to Dells for flexibility because I got tired of having ergotron mounts for everything when they would not be necessary with a little more built-in adjustability for monitors.

Mmmmm marantz, i love your set up and hearing it would probably be candy to my ears :p RS8's are fantastic probably best speaker i have ever had, they do me well. I was at an audio show here in toronto and heard the new sonus faber line...words can't describe what i heard but too bad they're a little out of my price range :( ANYWAY! classic set up
