room size question.
i have not turned the subs off.           i guess my question is what would be the purpose of that ? yes the gear is in between the speakers.      the stands are basically amp stands, so they are very low to the ground. 1) It is easy & fre... 
Anotherspeaker placement question (distance measurements)
@bigtwin , mid range/woofer driver distance was a typo: 32.75 not 33.75. Last night, after I finished typing, I got back in The Room & did some repositioning (but no listening as of yet).                                    One thing I did de... 
Anotherspeaker placement question (distance measurements)
  @bigtwin  , (I will make a correction & report that my woofer is about 33.75 & the formula with the variations I was calculating with was giving me numbers very close to that) math was never a strong subject for me (I think that is why I... 
Anotherspeaker placement question (distance measurements)
Thanks to all for responding. @bigtwin  , I did read your response in the other "room size" thread.  Like the OP of that one, I am working with a small space.  When you posted this formula, I did not, at that time, work with any of your measureme... 
Ultimate stereo nightmare
I hate to say it, but I am feelings the aches & pains of aging myself. You didn't list your equipment (separates or integrated, SS or tube, etc.) and this may be helpful to know. But, I also hate to say this, I think you are going to have to...

Thanks, @tomcarr  , I just did a quick search & MD has the LP (which won't fit inside my CDP) and then I took a look on ebay & I saw one by SMH . . . I've found that SHM usually does a pretty good red-book.

@newbee  , center of the driver then.  Thanks!

@tomcarr  , I guess since I've already strayed from the OP, I may as well stray a bit further.  As far as classic rock, these days I limit it to buying & listening to certain remasters that I hope will provide a good sonic presentation.  I kee...

@tomcarr  , just some commentary which is off of OP's original topic, but I do remember reading about HDCD in Stereophile when it (HDCD) was a new thing, and I was intrigued.  I was always thinking I should have ordered my Muse DAC with the HDCD c... 
Quad panel outlet - can I do one circuit on this?
But @curiousjim , I must ask:  how DO you know this?? @jumia  , now I am the one who is confused.  This, below, indicates that you have two multibranch circuits, not two dedicated circuits? and while 2 dedicated circuits would be highly prefera... 
room size question.
I would unplug the subs first, and experiment with the monitors only. I just did a reread & I read this by @grislybutter  , did you ever give this a try? Also, in that previous listening space which you have alluded to, did you have any ge... 
Quad panel outlet - can I do one circuit on this?
a few lights, modem, router, weather station and a couple network switches all living off of a 15 amp circuit with lots of room to spare I believe. Sounds good.  Then I added 2 dedicated circuits with 10 gauge wire for all the audio gear and it h... 
Quad panel outlet - can I do one circuit on this?
It's about the clarity and isolation of the electricity and making sure less restricted Power availability is always there which is enhanced with a higher gauge electrical wire. I have not once made any claims whatsoever to have a real tight gr...

I think the SACD UN-Mastered version is class A+, the CD version is class A. @tomcarr  , I'd put the SACD "Cafe Blue Unmastered" on the best-of-my-best list, for sure.  Have you heard the MFSL SACD of "Cafe Blue"  (not unmastered)?  I go back &... 
Quad panel outlet - can I do one circuit on this?
Can I do a 20 amp dedicated circuit to four outlets in a quad panel on the wall? . . . oh, but the answer to this would be ’yes.’ You could use a strip, a power conditioner, or you could connect your two duplexes (which were on the same 20A cir...
