Your "Many Worlds" Audio System?
      Some excerpts, from my post to a recent thread (>1000 posts), that became so contentious, it was deleted.                                            DISCLAIMER:     I left that thread, a couple pages prior to deletion, so: not my (direc... 
Your "Many Worlds" Audio System?
     Does this mean: there are actually some, on this site, willing to discuss how Quantum Mechanics might actually influence our listening?       I'll repost some snippets, from previous threads, for the interested, while cooling the flames, I t...

                        Bookcases DO make great diffusers.     I use my old Magnepan MG12s for front, Home Theatre (5.1) speakers.     Their back waves fire into a pair, from less than 15", instead of having to be further into room.            ...

@oldrooney -        There are less expensive options available than genuine Sonex, or Auralex (LENRDs), on eBay*.         I can only assume: they'd be as efficacious, as the real thing.                               Can't REALLY see why not!  ...

@oldrooney -        Be certain all the drivers in your left channel's speaker system are functional.        If possible: undo any changes made in the room, since the last, full (L/R) soundstage you recall.        Try to get your listening area ...

@macg19- " ...I guess I'm set up fairly well."                   Affirmation/Confirmation feels good, right?                                     Happy listening!

     The tests that I referenced are scientifically designed to eliminate all variables, as far as the source/recording.       If your system reproduces the effects, as recorded and announced/described prior to play; your system will reproduce wh...

     Without actually being in the room, with your system/media; it would be difficult (an understatement) to accurately diagnose your issue(s), but, whenever a question arises, regarding sound stage and imaging; I suggest the following tests, by ...
