| Can speakers be both "big" and "accurate" ? My guess is that your problem is not the speakers, but the room. Maybe not too small, but not optimal acoustically. I'd suggest you start looking into room treatments to cut down the reflections. This will allow all the volume you want while maint... | |
| How Do I Start Playing With the Big Boys and Girls The other replies are right. You need to narrow it down to a manageable list.

| Spikes for Meadowlark Shearwater Hot Rod Are the spikes too short and fat to pas through the carpet? Target speaker stands come with long thin spikes which are available separately, but I'm not sure about their thread sizes. You could check with one of their dealers. They also have a kit... | |
| Panels to treat a vaulted ceiling? You are probably better treating the floors (and possibly the walls) rather than the ceiling. I have a similar room. Is the ceiling higher above one speaker than the other? Can you place the system on the wall under the low end of the ceiling so t... | |
| need ideas to raise speaker stands I have to disagree with Paulwp. I believe your sound will be better if the speakers are coupled to the stands rather than isolated. I use "bluetack", but in a very small amount, just to prevent scratching the bottom of the speaker and keep it from... | |
| What are your "reference" CDs? Marakanetz: I still listen to Sting, I am just disappointed at the quality of the mix. When I upgraded to my newest system, I expected to really enjoy his recordings (considering the musicians and the money available for his projects) but found th... |
