I too have the galant desk but need some drawers. Which drawers do you have under the desk?

Headphones are Sennheiser HD 280 Pro.

I've got the same pair of headphones. Owned them for…*six or seven years now, still great condition and good sound.

The older the headphones the better they sound because of the burn in.

Snow Leopard won't run on it; as far as I can tell, it's running Leopard anyway which is the latest OS for PowerPC Macs.

Anyway, my current setup:

My 13-inch MacBook Pro (Late 2011) with 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD, set in a Twelve South BookArc and connected to the 23-inch LG IPS237L (as is my XBOX 360, which isn't pictured but located on top of the cabinet next to the Mac). There's also a Twelve South BassJump and 1TB Time Capsule next to the display.

On the right, there's my iPad (4th gen) 32GB Wi-Fi with a modded "tan" Smart Cover, my woodskinned Moto G (2013) and my iPod nano (6th gen) which I'm using as a watch until my Moto 360 arrives.

Gorgeous setup! I absolutely love how your modded tan Smart Cover and Moto G almost perfectly match.

It was actually a cheap iPhone 5 dock from eBay, non-genuine Apple obviously, but the 6 still fits in it

Damn nice setup! Wish I had that kind of money. Nice iPod Classic. Wish I could have gotten one before Apple stopped selling them.

Nice - maybe you should mount the triple monitors on the wall instead to get some distance view and smaller desk space. doesn't look like u have much room in between the bed and the desk.

 

[Calvinator666]

Just got a new pair of Audioengine A5+ a few days ago, still needs some burn-in time but they already sound really good so far. Photo taken with the iPhone 6 Plus.

I would love to be able to do that, and it does annoy the heck out of me.. but I face two problems.. the Samsung monitors aren't actually VESA compatible and I'm renting the place, so I'm unable to drill into the walls. I'd love to have all three wall mounted plus the TV mounted above it if I could! This is why the only way I could think to do it was to have the reception style desk with the hob to have the TV above it all. If anyone has other ideas or thoughts about how to achieve it without drilling into the walls I'd love to hear!

Nice! And would look even better without those boxes on the shelves

I also like to keep the boxes but have them stored elsewhere..
