| need help with old receivers tone controls Those are probably 'hinge' points where the roll-offs begin. | |
| what is the best way to deal w/ an asymnetrical .. I second the suggestion that you get CARA and use it before investing in any more hardware. It should tell you what you want to know: why the system sounds the way it does now and how it will sound if you move/add components/room treatment. | |
