Great systems in butt-ugly rooms

Just because Albert Porter may live, entertain, or serve dinners in his listening room doesn't mean it isn't "dedicated".

I agree and in fact, your point was the inspiration for my current room.

I have always enjoyed listening late at night and in the dark.

But even under those conditions I would agree that a "butt ugly", ill conceived, cluttered, garage like atmosphere detracts from the experience and pleasure of listening to music on a high end system.

Having said that, it can be very difficult and very expensive to create a beautiful and serene listening environment.

Nonetheless, something everyone should consider, and an excellent strategy for coping with WAF issues.

I am speechlessly impressed with your excellent counterpoint, and may have to go and humbly bury my face in my 7' pink velvet sofa.

I can also confirm, however, that cranking the Lemon Song and shotgunning a few beers goes better with 12 foot ceilings than you might think.

Cheers,

High end audio is extremely "fussy".

So I guess you are in the looks matter camp.
