Is it even possible to set up a system in 12x12 room?

Yup. And thank goodness the moderators are monitoring the abuses here, as evidenced by the deleted posts. The thing is not all nonsense, disinformation and bad behavior violates the stated forum rules, so can’t rely on that alone. In fact a lot m...
