Advice for a new analog system
@thoft I understand and appreciate your position on buying good quality equipment the first time around. This approach will likely save you money and definitely save you time. Some people enjoy the audio journey and others just want to get to thei... 
Happy Thanksgiving/ A peaceful holiday and hopeful message.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! We have much to be thankful for. List one thing you are thankful for.  I am thankful for family, good health and being able to design and build audio gear for a living.  
The big Gensis are back, but what about Arion?
@erik_squires  It's all good. I feel very fortunate and never take for granted that I get to design and manufacture audio equipment and contribute to our industry. Life is good.

BTW, Dynamiclinearity, nice to see you at the Capital Audiofest show.

Erik, Our technology lends itself very well to an in-wall application. We are currently having discussions about adding that option to our lineup. We have tried it and it works really well.  As "they" say "watch this space".  
Experienced only: What have you done with room correction?
Passive room treatment (if it's allowed) is always the best first choice.  
Experienced only: What have you done with room correction?
Erik, Full disclosure: We design and manufacture speaker systems (in the USA) that use full DSP, specifically digital crossovers and room correction. First, DSP (Digital Signal Processing) is a broad term. Basically, anywhere there is digital si...

New here and saying HI!
Welcome!  
Looking for wider soundstage
Try this simple experiment for reference. Cover the TV located to the right with a thick blanket or blankets, shut the door behind the right speaker and see if you hear    a different. Toe in so the speakers are pointing directly at the main liste... 
Best room EQ?
Look into the Trinnov ST2 HiFi. Their unique mic and intuitive software make the system easy to use with excellent results. It has both digital and analog inputs. The unit is very transparent. Disclosure: We supply them with our Apollo speaker sys... 
Who actually uses digital speakers?
Hi Erik, Just to be clear "wider isn’t worth the extra floor space" in my context is "with (our Apollos and) DSP/Room correction wider isn’t worth the extra floor space". If you are building a line array without digital room correction (or passi... 
Who actually uses digital speakers?
Hi Erik, Our baffle design accomplishes what we want and with DSP/Room correction wider  isn’t worth the extra floor space. A line array without DSP/Room correction, like the Infinity, is designed differently than our Apollos and can benefit from...
