Soffit construction, worthwhile?
I can do the wall stuff myself. To do the soffit, I need to move everything out, have a contractor spend a couple of days in the room. 
Soffit construction, worthwhile?
Not expanding the room but rearranging room treatment. Considering DIY traps/diffusors vs RPG stuff. I am thinking of either just doing the wall and the corners +/- soffit built along where wall meets the ceiling.THanks 
Rockport Mira VS Verity Parsifal Ovation
Agree of most of the points made here except optimal driver integration distance. Verity is actually very good for near field and does not require any more distance betw listening even compare to minimonitor. Rationale is the midrange covers down ...
