AUDIOPHILE OR JUST CRAZY ?
« Syntax and rethoric are the clothes the beggar or the rich, the healthy or the sick take when they wrote their words; ignoring that veiling a part of ourself with our language, we also unveil another part of ourself using it... Language is the b... 
Perfect Speaker Placement - Put next to the back wall as much as possible.
To clarify, you guys are saying that your speakers are 38% into the room and your listening seat is also 38% into the room? This seems like it would be a nearfield setup in anything less than a 40 foot deep room... Yes you are right... In my case...

So, while room treatment may help and equipment rack placement may help, you can get to this level of imaging without it. Interesting... I believe you because all room are different and dont need the same level of treatment, and some Audio system...

UPDATE: IMPORTANT FOCUS POINT ABOUT MY NEW UNORTHODOX ACOUSTICAL DEVICE,First the effect is at the same time very audible and very subtle....Very audible and very subtle?How to reconcile these seeming 2 contradictory points?Simple, think about eac...

chilli42 Nothing will replace fun experiments with your own ears.... It takes times, it takes me 2 years to figure it out, one incremental acoustic controls or treatment , one step at a time...But we must all learn how to listen sound...Hearing...

Bottom line is that high end gear from years past is still high end gear. My Sansui AU 7700 was considered one of the best amplifier in the world at his price level (450 dollars in 1978) Today there exist better BUT at a very higher cost but even...

In thousand of years nobody has ever contested this mathematical fact, even trees obey it...And celestial dynamics are also obeying it... http://article.sapub.org/10.5923.j.astronomy.20190801.02.html 38: 62 is the proportion between the shorter li...

Millercarbon is right about the EXACT angle necessary to position speakers.... That is mandatory...Happy New Year....

For the maggies i dont know, i own box speakers, but the golden proportion has make his proof in all nature and in all the best old monastery with an extraordinary acoustic and not only greek hall...Acoustic law dont change with speakers, but some...

The music of my youth has never ever sounded better than today at  69 years old... No comparison at all.... It is my audio room that make that happen... Not my inexistant  bat ears or low cost system.... 
Cautionary Tale
The best system in the world is any good one not too costly and better than that, low cost, BUT  well embedded....(mechanical and electrical and acoustical controls)I must already  own it.... 😁People in general, it is a story that go back in the p...

Source can make a big difference: I was comparing two CD players. For sure source is important...But between all dac or cd players, half of them will sound wrong and the other half relatively good (it is a way of speaking i dont know the exact nu...

Biggest jump up I had in creating a large soundstage was HFT’s from Synergistic Research. I already speak about resonators in acoustic controls.... But instead paying big money i bought copper lure for fishing line among others things for few cen...

The acoustic properties they discuss are universal, I think that this is right because the ratio 62% to 38% is an expression of the Golden Ratio....Then older than european civilization and well known in very ancient times and used by the Greek i...
