room makes or breaks


just a statement. i've been into this hobby for about eight years now, i adjusted and changed gear a good bit over the years. my last room was more long and about 14 foot wide, i recently moved and set up in a room about 20 foot wide and not as deep.
i am just amazed at how much better my system now sounds, speakers have vanished ,every aspect has improved, dont know if i lucked into a sweet spot, but the room has made a HUGE diff. im pleasantly blown away, like i bought a new system.

IMO the “Elephant in the Room” as far as this Audio hobby is concerned is the room itself.

How do we find the numerous hints, tips, and advice that has been provided over the years on dealing with "the Room" by valued members?

A suggestion to the Audiogon staff.

Please add a category called “The Room” or something similar.

Cheers
