...or the 'Stuff' needed to "mak'em work Proper."
( emphasis = yours)
If so, ipso facto, something to consider ;)

@dr-boop ...Yeah, the funny Llama (Rama Llama Ding Dong, Esq.: Awed Oddness Specialist....) is right on with that absurdvation on 'being sound'....or was it 'being a sound being'....? Things get complex when the air thins.....;) 😎 @deep_333 ....*L*....and said 'philes' residence is the small bungalow with the 400amp breaker box outside....🤦♂️.... Awhile ago, I 'deconstructed' a steel bldg, and moved it onto a former property; one item gleaned was a 'service disconnect' box with a spring-operated knife switch for 440 3-phase power. 'Delightful chunk', it was....gave a loud *CHUNK!* whether it was being dis- or engaged..... Always thought it'd be 'cute' to have in a corner, but would only trigger a tiny lightbulb....nothing else. A 'major overkill demo piece', just for the *grins*.

Actually, 5 of 3 ain't all that bad.... Always seem to immersed in reflections .. refractions, and watching the waves... Life in a 'real world' space, the side walls and back wall are everything but 'predictable' or simple.... Consider a complicated maze....'hollow out' the middle... That's my listening space. You'd toss hands, and take up knitting..... The balance of the post is what I've within that, and why I choose to 'ignore the room' per Linkwitz. I have to. I don't believe I've Ever been fortunate to 'set-up' in a space that any rational 'phile would accept as 'having potential'... Therefore....
