| Speakers for a very large room? I second Tekton and also look at the Encores which may be best sounding speakers he makes. | |

| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat Use rubber bands to hold the card on the cord. | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat I placed a card in each of my speaker crossover compartments. My speakers have a nice compartment in the bottom of the speaker ..... not inside the bass cavity which is a great thing! It has been 3days and the results have been very good. More “... |
