| diffusion at first reflective points + what ive learned about room treatments The primary goal of using absorption is to reduce reverb times. With no back wall, this may be less necessary. By having surfaces that slope, or are not parallel, room modes are reduced as well. So the diffusion adds to this, creating a nice acous... | |

| Can you use both RCA and XLR interconnects into the amplifier? I would be careful. My Parasound A23+ has both inputs and a switch but I don't think they're isolated. When I accidentally put the switch in the wrong position, sound still comes through but a different level. Yours may be different. | |
| Best for Classic/Progressive Rock and Blues Vintage JBLs like 4311, 4312, and many in the L series can be found for $6-800. If they're all original and in good condition,they will fulfill your wishes. | |

| Lowend amp The Parasound A23+ is in your price range. Damping factor >800. Class A/AB 160w@8ohms. | |
| The Midnight Effect - Who-How? I "warm up" my ears before seriously listening. I start at very low volume while "getting my head together". I allow my brain to "tune in" to whatever is on at that volume until I can hear details and depth. At some point the "switch gets flipped"... | |

| The real truth about recordings @soix That's how I feel about sausage. I just want it to taste good. But tasty sounding recordings are something I want to know more about. | |
| SEEKING ADVICE: Which component would you upgrade first? If you want more modern electronics, look at Rotel. Modestly priced, good quality, and nice features in their integrated amps. | |
