Top Speakers for Nearfield Listening in Small Room

How to hang rugs.
Thank you Albert!!! A lot easier than mine and will use that combination the next time. Jlind, if you have ceilings that are 10' tall there are probable a few people that would help you in room acousitics. ;-) My ceilings are 8' and from listening... 
How to hang rugs.
If it's the rug in your system pics get some rebar for concrete cut to the hanging length and a spraycan of paint or clear to prevent the rebar from oxidizing. I used fishing line to sew the rug to the bar. If it's too heavy for mounting on the dr... 
No one cares this is the anniversary?
My original response to this thread came back when Albert posted it in 2004. Much has changed since then. One of my sons joined the Marine Corp (Semper Fi) and my daughter joined the Army National Guard. As a 51 year old father that grew up in the...

Why do some CDP's play louder?
I've had the same experience with 2 different preamps, a Krell KBL and a CJ 12. With the Krell I could get the volume to 1 or 2 o'clock on the volume and the CJ only let me get to 10 o'clock. It did turn out to be system synergy between output and...

BEST AUDIOGON POSTS
I learned more about this community and the people from the thread Patrick Malone-Lugnut Thread. I hesitated about posting this thread because it is still a little raw but it really shows that this is a group of people that enjoy audio but really ... 
Amateur inherited an audio system...
raycc, I'll take you back to your original post "I inherited this system". When I inherited something from someone it was because the person (normally dead) thought that I would be someone who would take the time to set it up right and they though... 
Best Concert Film
Warrenh, I was 14 and tried to talk my parents into letting me go to Woodstock. That must be some memory. For me it's got to be Bela Fleck and the Flecktones "Live at the Quick" on DVD. What a wonderful preformance and extras.Boss302
