Marty, I have a very similiar size basement room and for me the JM Lab Chorus 705 w/very high quality 80's Sony components sounds superb. Be sure to use floor spikes which will rest the spks. on the concrete floor. I tried a few combinations of spks. gefore hitting it just right. You might have to do the same. Good Luck and Congratulations! Bill
My first house Just how bad of a room? 12Wx14Lx8H
Hello all,
Just bought my first house, most excited! Just looking for input on how bad of a room this will be. I think all my gear can physically fit, with no place to sit, see "system" link for details. House built in 1985, MN suburbs. Basement room of a 3 level split. Rectangle @ 12Wx14Lx8H.
I'll set things up and see what happens; the dual subs might not work too well.
I can make the room longer by knocking down a wall, 15L/17L? I'll crunch the numbers and see what might be best in theory. Can't make the room wider due to load bearing walls. No WAF here, just making a small bedroom/office smaller.
Let me know what I can expect, or if making the room longer will really help at all. Standard carpet/sheet rock construction. No drop ceiling, just the "normal" ceiling (sheet rock?).
Thanks!
Marty
