Your other speaker needs to be on the desk. That would bug the hell out of me.
What the speaker shaped thing on the right hand chest of draws is not a speaker? Please explain.

I love this desk. Could you tell me more about it?
Looks like the Linnmon 1.2m desk that's 20, with Alex drawer unit 65.
I have the 1.5m linnmon with alex, and ulrik at the back.
Thank you! I didn't realize that ikea had many deep desks aside from the Galant. I guess I'm going to have to expand my search from computer desks to tables in order to find a more comfortable working depth.
Ikea used to sell it as the Vika Amon, but redid a few things - I really like how you can mix & match the tops and legs (or put drawers or shelves instead). They even have adjustable legs if you want a desk that can be a standard height or a standing desk. The other nice thing is that if you get the cheaper tops and they eventually wear or you want to change to something else, you can just migrate the old hardware and legs over to the new one.
I added a small shelf on the far left end of my desk for things like external hard drives and other stuff with a couple of these and a shelf from the scratch-and-dent section: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10168720/ Someone could attach that along the back edge of a desk for storage behind a monitor/iMac, too.
Thanks a lot, it's a just a desk and white legs, if you go to IKEA you can simply choose everything and then put it together at home, that's actually super cool
Got our new table desk setup, nice little colab space...and enough to have your own area. really liking it.
Nothing special but it serves its purpose well enough

EDIT: Found this going through an old hard drive, must be 8 years old at least. Big difference lol

the walls look black but not as black as the sofa. are the walls actually a dark matte gray or is the walls really a matte black.
The walls are actually a medium matte gray, they're a bit lighter than they appear in the picture, and during the daytime the colors contrast really well. Unfortunately my office window faces the sun during my working hours, and the previous wall color just made it way to bright for me. The dark colors make it much more tolerable when I work during the day, and at night when I game it's perfectly lit.
Nice setup! I suspect you do use the sound link as a speaker while at the desk or is it just placed there? I'm contemplating getting rid of my old 2.0 speakers and replacing them with a sound link but i'm not sure if it is any good at this distance placed right in front of me while sitting at my desk.. Any thoughts?
It is indeed. Phenomenal monitor and everything that's made in 16:9 seems off now.
You are very lucky. I dont have a pc to power it and it would look ridiculous next to my imac. It seems perfect for your mac pro. I would have wall mounted it and hide all the wires though.
