Definitive Audio resides in an 1850's textile mill complex next to one of the East Midlands' many canals.
Today Harrington Mill is a vestigial remnant of the textile, upholstery and furniture industries which once were a core
of the local economy but since have been widely outsourced to China and Poland.
The all brick construction is a lovely throwback to past centuries and avoids modern concrete, steel girder and glass schemes.
The tall chimney makes for quite the landmark.
The bulwarks give these buildings a fortress-type appearance. Only a moat is missing.
The Harrington Mill complex is a sizable industrial affair.
To expedite deliveries and pickups, the mill relies on these winches for easy access.


Ensconced by reject cabinets, the Definitive Audio loft contains this massive battery bank to run entire systems off the grid.
After a four-hour listening session, a quick check showed 94.7% of battery power remaining.
This is a setup any hot-blooded audiophile should aspire to.
This is the foyer as seen when descending the steps from the storage loft.
The two main listening rooms are off to the right, with one door visible, the other outside the photo to the very front.

Standing against the stairs is an 1812 Velodyne subwoofer.
Some massive 500-liter twin 18-inch sub cabs are stacked against the walls.

A bank of regulated power supplies from Kevin Scott's earlier days.
Living Voice Avatar speakers and Kondo mono amps.
An Art Audio Argento amplifier from Tom Willis who lives 10 minutes away.
Definitive Audio rewires this 300B parallel single-ended amp with Kondo, replaces the signal coupling caps,
the stock pot and adds a proprietary outboard filament supply transformer with Kondo umbilical.
More Kondo gear plus New Audio Frontiers and a Jeff Rowland phono amp.
