??? Where Does "High End" Start ???
I think what level a component is can also be determined by brand. When we see VAC, Boulder , Rockport , CH Precision ,ARC  etc. don’t we automatically think high end?   
The death of ultra hiend audio
@dayglow  +1 on the Boulder 866!! It is fabulous !!  
Room Treatment Help
@keeferdog  Unless you look forward to all the time (a lot) and effort with trial and error trying to dial in your room just consult an acoustician. Jeff at HDacoustics is extremely good with smaller rooms  and can design the treatments required ... 
Room treatment
+2 @kofibaffour  No way a room that size how you describe it is over damped. Maybe your listening spot is in a null?   
Recommendations for speakers in a much smaller listening room.
@backwash  You would benefit greatly by consulting an acoustician. Jeff at HDacoustics is very good and he designed my room which I built while my speakers were being built. He can design which treatments to use and precisely where to put them. H... 
Speakers "Too Big" for room
As it has already been said above, it completely depends on the room. It’s much harder without a dedicated space that you can modify to work. My room was designed by an acoustician and  has no drywall inside. Amazing results   
Why don’t more members post their systems in their profile?
I don’t see how anyone could learn where someone lives off of some pics of a persons system so I don’t get the theft thing at all. Even telling the forum the area of the country you live in is very vague and unlikely anyone could find out exactly ...

Rockport excels at most everything!

Couldn’t hurt to rotate just to see. Or you could tell your significant other those speakers deserve a dedicated room!! Good luck and enjoy !   
DeVore O/96 Unboxing
@mfisher702  Congratulations on the new speakers! But doesn’t one speaker less than a foot from a window/wall and one with what looks like a lot of open space on that side significantly mess with the image and soundstage ?   
Single way or multiway
I will take a good quality 3 way speaker every time. Asking a single driver to do all the work seems far more difficult than building a quality cross over.

Sorry final song not so  
Ozzie Ozbourne is Dead
His final so was just perfect. Mama I’m coming home. Love his music and a great song writer.   
Suggestions for a holographic preamp?
@larsman  I agree with the earlier post about your room being vital for the sound you want. Address any issues with it first. If you are considering SS Boulder is extremely good albeit neutral. I use their app on my tablet for volume control and ...
