Thanks! Yes, the Harmonys are all brass/smoked oak. We chose this finish for 3 reasons: 1) After years of having nickel hardware in our previous homes, we selected all brass fittings for this home, and wanted to keep the look consistent throughout our home. 2) I wanted the flexibility of moving speakers around without mismatched systems. 3) It's what my wife liked most, and therefore she didn't really give me a hard time as things added up.

I should also point out it was not my intention to have 3 Harmonys. I originally planned an Eclipse for the office for some variety, but settled on the Harmony, again as it's what my wife liked best and it gave us the ability to better hide the game systems behind the TV so they wouldn't be visible from the front.

I get why you went with the Harmony, it seems it has less visual bulk even when it’s off, the footprint seems minor.

Smoked oak and brass is an excellent combination. That’s what I am going for.

Thanks. We have the two pairs of 18s and a 19 in the bedroom for full surround, as after the family room, that's where my wife and I watch most of our TV/movies. We also utilize different speaker groups there for background music with the speakers playing in double stereo, or listening in either the bed or the chair with only one pair of 18s (the 19 is used for all modes). The TV in the office doesn't get as much use by us for TV/movies as the other Harmonys, except by our daughter, who watches/plays video games there after work hours. So the 28s were placed with a focus on the lounge chair for more critical music listening, with the added benefit of using them as rear surrounds utilizing the Harmony for front left, center and right. So, for music, we use wide mode while at our desks, and narrow mode for listening in the lounge chair.

And, yes, it's a shame if indeed the brass tone is going EOL, as we quite like it and it was a real selling point for us. But I guess it'll always be available bespoke for a premium, so perhaps it's just raised the value of our systems in the future (not that I'm thinking of parting with them).

Regarding the 28’s, sounds logical and again very nice setup. Enjoy it al! I’m anxious to start my love affair with the 50’s and Harmony soon.

Extremely impressive! 🤒

I gave my audio master a new location, after it was hidden upstairs after rearranging the furnitures. Hidden in the cupboard is an Airport Express for streaming music throughout the house.

The headphones are just for display as they run out of foam and was also terminated by the cat (took a bite of the cable). Replaced by H8. The BS Explore are rarely standing here as my daughter has adopted it.

This is the almost the only place in the house where the B&O cables are visible. The concrete walls in the basement gave me no chance.

what is the patent on the wall?🤒

Very happy with my upgrade, what a perfect combination it is!

Oh yes. That’s beautiful.

Fantastic (heel mooi) 

That's what I'm going for with the motor stand 

Looking good Fansastic!🤒

The motor stand is very nice indeed! Very smooth, even better then the Eclipse. Brass is EOL, if you might be interested. (Aussie is Nederlands 😁?)
