Shameless Poll: Pearl vs Ohm vs Zu
I would scold Santa for trespassing, littering my house with trash, etc and ask him to take back all 3 lousy speakers and that lousy amp back to his shire. No thanks Santy... At this rate, maybe i’ll have better luck with Uncle Lucifer...who may... 
Nearfield Low-Level Listening : New Speakers or EQ? Thoughts?
Just sell everything to someone more deserving of your gear. You didn’t need all this gear for it to squeal away at 45db. Get a pair of in-ear earphones, turn the volume way down to 40 dB or whatever.... and let it squeal softly.

Heed the warning! My soundsystem and records are a pile of ashes
You and your family are safe. Material things can be recouped. Someone i know lost his firstborn almost 20 years ago and he still feels like shooting himself in the head every year the hint of a birthday rolls around... Doesn't matter how wealthy... 
Who positions their speakers straight ahead (zero tow in) and why.
If the soundstage is more enveloping only if you fire forward, there are some deficiencies in the speaker. You compromise optimal sound power and the perception of it when firing forward, for example. The only exception to firing directly at the l... 
The Real Reason Why Music Is Getting Worse!!
All the talented new artists have everything rigged against them (w.r.t marketing/recognition)....cblocked by a whole lotta boomer bozo artists who’ve already had the marketing in place for a few decades. Any young music lover looking at a specif... 
Who positions their speakers straight ahead (zero tow in) and why.
Most dudes who fire it forward tend to have a hot tweeter.  
Do you have a screw loose?
It would be safe to assume that 99% of the forum membership have plenty of loose screws, can't be fixed (goes with the core definition of audiophile )..  
Atmos speaker recommendations for a Magneplanar surround set up?
@stephengordon I would probably experiment with a pair of on-wall maggies as heights mounted on the ceiling right above the listening position (x.x.2). It should add the next level of envelopment/immersion with some upmixer such as Neural X, whi... 
Main speaker placement- fundamentally wrong?
God designed your head for multichannel audio, not stereo.

If the speaker is too big for your room, overloading your room, etc, it means any car stereo you ever heard in life in that tiny space called a car cabin should have had overwhelming bass, chestiness, congestion, etc. But, that was not the case in... 
It is December 1, 2024 - Do you know where your Caladans are????
Tahiti does sound good, especially in winter. We are building and shipping like crazy, so we are getting through the backlog.  For shipment updates, watch for our ETA Update posts on our forum, instead of depending on the speculation found here... 
HOW DID YOU END UP WITH YOUR DREAM SYSTEM?
calvinj, Unfortunately the wire that you're using is not that good and extremely overpriced, I was on the website and to charge $4,000 US for 2 m speaker wire that's made from the cheapest wire out there which is OFC is criminal, OCC single crys... 
Tekton speaker comparison thread
I just can’t get past their speaker cabinets regardless of sound. Man, those things are cheap and ugly! Homework#45: Circle the ugly.    
Which subwoofer should I get?
my guess would be that, REL subs set ups are such an ease, the use of an APP would be frivolous. Only Rel subs defied physics and set up with ease in spite of a severely lazy lack of features and integration tools?? "such an ease", Rel marketi...
