| AV In Wall Rack - Recommendations It’s been 20 years since I specced one of these! My one bit of advice is to seriously consider a slide out (like this https://www.middleatlantic.com/products/racks-enclosures/slide-out-racks/asr-hd-series-heavy-duty-sl...) if you are building in w... | |
| AV In Wall Rack - Recommendations That one says it was custom built. I’d start with the racks from a supplier like this, a slide out is often a good choicehttps://www.middleatlantic.com/products/racks-enclosures.aspx | |

Well this seems to have wondered off into a discussion about speaker placement in the room in general which is fine ...The only point I was trying to make was to observe that, in my room, with my speakers, even when they are optimally positioned t... | |
| Listening Height Adjustment -- Is This Why Two People Don't Hear the Same?

| Audioquest WEL innerconnects are the older models the same as current model? Good point @mulveling I have had the old XLR connectors detach a connection on me especially if you twist them (which of course you never should do). Easy enough to open them up and tighten them down but never had a problem with the new terminatio... | |
| Audioquest WEL innerconnects are the older models the same as current model? Yes, the cable is the same. The connectors have undergone an upgrade, the old ones had a sort of rubbery finish that marked easily. The new ones are metallic and shinyAlso if you ever get offered an AQ Horizon cable that's actually the same wire a... | |
