Lots of bass at walls, lack of bass in center of room/listening position
Diffusers work based on wavelength. That's why you see those panels with wood blocks of different sizes at different heights. Each frequency has a wavelength. The higher the frequency the shorter the wavelength. Little blocks of wood can diffuse h... 
Is the Eames chair a favorite
The Stressless is my favorite of all. Eames is a more expensive version.  
Explain what is a clean power amplifier?
If Class D is too clean there are a few simple tweaks you might try. Obvious but slow is to just let the dust build up. If the sound is a bit dry and gritty and you would like a smoother softer focus try the Playboy Tweak, a thin coat of vaseline.... 
Line conditioner...
If a conditioner doesn’t improve the sound its not a good conditioner. Because no one has good power. Even if they did no one has wires that keep the power good all the way to where its used. Which is a long way. All the way from the meter to the ... 
I'm Goin' Home
I'm going home was one of the best parts of the whole movie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjHksjW4XQk 
Why the truth is not in them ??
Yes of course it is a poor way to deal with people. Jordan Peterson gives a very compelling talk about how the greatest most productive asset a nation, people or economy can have is trust. Look around the world, its plain to see the places where p... 
Not sure of term but I notice some distortion/vibration coming out the speaker port?

How do you all manage mild hearing loss?
You're 37. That means realistically you could be looking at another 50 years. You want to spend it like this? Stuffing crap behind your ears? You know where this is headed. There used to be a stereotype of the old codger with a great big horn goin... 
Why are there so many wooden speakers?
There is a limit to the sound you can get out of a wooden box so it is not possible to improve the sound just by using different drivers.Well, no, there isn't. Because its not the box that makes the sound. Its the drivers AND the box. So improving... 
Explain what is a clean power amplifier?
Deed I do! Its why there's TC and Mats all over the place, all the way out to the meter. With more coming soon! 
Explain what is a clean power amplifier?
You're right! I completely unplugged my amp from my dirty house AC and it sounded wonderful! For about five seconds. Then it faded out. Plugged it back in. Crap dirty sound again. Unplugged, clean power! But only for seconds! How can I get clean p...

Soundproofing
No problem. Simply build it inside the existing one. Next? 
... abit confused: how does a power cord affect the presentation of sound...
Correct. Ears are not microphones.  We create the music. Ourselves. Without us there is not only no music, there isn't even any sound. The old puzzle if a tree falls in the forest and there is no one around to hear it does it make a sound? No. It ... 
Which Would You Prefer
I would prefer this. Only with new speakers.  https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/8367  Oh wait- I just got new speakers! Nevermind.
