Room Acoustics and Speaker Placement
@ghdprentice Thank you, and it make sense. I just ordered the book on Amazon. And here's my humble setup (not remotely as amazing as yours). I did pull them apart and toe them directly firing at my listening position. The imaging has improved dram... 
Room Acoustics and Speaker Placement
@ghdprentice Wow, your system and room both look incredible. Must be a treat to listen to music! The speakers are roughly 5 feet apart. I can spread them out a bit but the right side speaker is 2 feet from the side wall.  Will it be ok if its 1 o...

Also. I sit on the lengthy part of the couch for now. Plan is to move it to the other side and put another chair right in front of the speaker creating that L shaped sofa. If that makes sense? Let’s just say the sitting position will likely be whe...

@ghdprentice thank you so much for the prompt response.  the 2 wall art hanging behind the speakers are acoustic panels. Are you recommending adding more?    the glass above the speaker is a little window of sorts because the living room doesn’t...

  Hey guys,  Apologies for the radio silence. I got extremely busy with shifting and other stuff. Anyway, we successfully moved and while we’re still settling down, I got my setup in place.   Hope these photos give you a better sense of the roo...

@hilde45 the wall itself must be around 12 feet. So I could position the speakers potentially 3 feet away from the right side wall leaving about 6 feet between the speakers. And for what’s it worth, the distance from the left side wall (basically ...

@yoyoyaya actually the photos are a bit deceptive. The width isn’t as bad as it appears.  The width of the wall where I’m planning to place the speakers should be at least 10 feet if not more.    and to your idea about moving the speakers to the ...

Help me choose a phono pre
@kofibaffour is the spartan 20’s MC good enough for LOMC carts? I’m considering upgrading to a Hana ML. Currently using an AT540ML.

 @ozzy62 & @immatthewj Thanks guys! With option 2, the side wall on the left will be farther away as compared to the side wall on the right.  Is there anything I can do to minimize the skew? Would toeing in help?  
Help me choose a phono pre
Hey guys, apologies for the radio silence. Got a bit tied up. i ended up getting the Michael fiddler’s spartan 20 and returned the Fosi. The spartan 20 is dead silent, literally no sound at all. Fosi albeit great value for money, had this constan...

@kofibaffour That's very reassuring. Thank you so much.

@facten Thank you! It was a brief listening session and sounded really really good. For background, I have a 15 month old, so don't get much time to listen in the first place. Its gonna be hard to spend hours of fiddling around with the setup and/... 
Help me choose a phono pre
Hey guys, I'm at a loss of words for how good the Fosi sounds. The soundstage, imaging, details.. it’s almost like it has breathed a new life into my records.    But while I’m super impressed, this is also my first experience with a phono preamp... 
Help me choose a phono pre
Hey guys, thank you so much for your inputs. I did some research after reading all the comments and sort of settled on the MM Pro by Mr Fiddler.  However, he’s on vacation for a week and will be placing the order once he’s back. In the meanwhile,...
