Wow, nice setup!

Thanks !

In my opinion, it's a very good deal for someone looking for a nice setup for a condo or a house. Everything was very well constructed and with the maximum flow and to reduce the sound in mind.

That is a very sweet setup. Do you have anything in place for air circulation under that canopy?

Also do you know what kind of wood was used to build the stand?

Thanks !

Yes, there is two fans in the canopy and the back of the canopy is open, so there is no moisture or heat build up inside the canopy, since it's all evacuated.

I'll put more pictures tonight to show you.

Yes, I know the kind of wood, since the stand was built by me and my father (my father is a professional woodworker)

Regards,
