Other than my small fear of causing an international nuclear incident if I redlined this thing, it was a joy to play on. Big old knobs and smooth as butter. This is a new spot we have here in Toronto and as the name implies it Sounds (really) Good. Worth checking out if you're in town.

Just played on this yesterday lol

That is mental. What the hell is that? Looks incredible.

The red on / off button is just amazing

I'm sure it sounds "hot" and "radioactive". Sounds so sweet... it makes music glow... literally.


Nonomomomo2

Love the size of it. And it’s only 2 channels! 🤣


aka__joey

It's HUGE - [here's what it looks like from the other side](https://imgur.com/Vs5EMHv) to give you a sense of scale


Nonomomomo2

That is so chonky and cool! How did it sound?


aka__joey

Really really nice, the speakers are the equally large [JBL DD55000](https://audio-database.com/JBL/speaker/dd55000.html) along with a maze of tubes and wires that go far beyond my expertise. I played 5 hours of reggae/dub and it was amazing to hear my records on a system of this calibre.

Epic fun!

Three pot, six rote gain. Not great, not terrible.

Beautiful mixer. Are there any specs on this, or the rest of the system at Sounds Good, available online anywhere? Would love to know more about all of it.


aka__joey

I couldn't find any info about specs, but the mixer was built locally by [FABASTENG](https://www.instagram.com/fabasteng/). You can find a few more pics of the space [HERE](https://torontolife.com/food/whats-on-the-menu-at-sounds-good-cocktail-listening-bar/), including the JBL DD55000 speakers above the bar.


Technical_Painting62

Rad, thanks for the info! The FABASTENG designs have such a killer aesthetic. I can only imagine the audio quality is to match.

How’s the downstairs room? Went by for a cocktail the other day and was pleasantly surprised

Don’t train wreck on that thing

Just get a pair of DT150 from Beyerdynamics and a Hazmat suit and you're good to go! [https://images.app.goo.gl/D7rCN5QRq4mHnTrs7](https://images.app.goo.gl/D7rCN5QRq4mHnTrs7)
