Looking for speaker recommendations for CJ Premier 11A
Freediver,       Thanks for the response. The room will be approximately 10 x 12, carpeted and one window with drapery. The room will be acoustically tuned with foam panels and whatever other tweaking it may need acoustically. I like it moderately... 
TRELJA in New York, 2002
Joe, Great post!!! I agree with all of your thoughts.Especially the one about more rooms sounding better this year.I was so impressed with the BAT/System Audio room that I believe these will be my next purchases.Although I think I will go with the... 
Are Thiel 2.3 much better than the 2 2's?
The 2.3's are an excellent speaker,but I do agree with everyones comments on the brightness.However,if these speakers have had the upgrade apllied,new mid-tweeter and components changed on the crossovers,they are absolutely stunning.I considered p...

Girlfriend's mom threw my Cardas out with trash

Trelja in New York
I agree with most here.The Cary/Vandersteen room was impressive.Dennis from Cary was in the room when we were there and had Nick put in Comfortably Numb from MFSL The Wall.After attempts by my friend to convince Nick to turn up the volume,Dennis s... 
Room Treatment
Herman,you can buy them at any Home Depot,Lowe's etc.Just remember to put bare fiberglass side out towards the room and cover them with some fabric so you don't have fiberglass particles floating in the air.Good Luck!!! 
Room Treatment
I have made rectangular and triangular panels out of 2'x4' fiberglass ceiling tiles and covered them with muslin fabric and a hot glue gun.I also made tube traps out of 4' metal fencing like the type you would put around a garden.I filled the insi...
