Your audiophile chair
@mikelavigne  Thank you. I have a Stressless chair like many others but as you said around 2 hours I need to switch from feet on the foot rest to the floor. I wish the foot rest was adjustable.   
Your audiophile chair
@mikelavigne  When you are listening in your chair are you in a reclined position or upright?    Regards Ron

@rick2000  Was Goebel there with their speakers? How did they compare to the others you have listed?  
Monitor Stands - Made of Stone
I watched both videos which were very good. But he only addressed vibration and from what I’ve read here if the cabinet and drivers are both moving back and forth there will be smearing. Has anyone experienced this?

@townshend-audio  Excellent post! That must sum up exactly what you are trying to accomplish with your successful product. But I am confused why you wouldn’t address my question. You sent me a PM saying you don’t get involved in forum conversatio...

@townshend-audio  Hello. It seems to me that a speaker on your podiums will rock back and forth due to the pistonic action of the drivers. That seems like an undesirable thing to have happen and will negatively affect the sound. What are your tho...

@nagasakti70  Perhaps a corner set up would work better than the standard set up. Have you tried it? Good luck !   
There's No Question
@benmeadows  If the cabinets aren’t very good I would expect the overall sound quality to suffer as well. I have never heard tektons but would like too. I’m sure they are a good value for what they are  
The difference between Qoboz stream vs purchased songs
I wanted to buy my entire playlist so in case Qobuz went away at least I would have the songs it took me years to assemble. Qobuz said they don’t offer that choice so hoped they will be around for a long time.

I’d slap a chicken or a ferret but I’m not slapping a bull.   
Boressen speakers
@blisshifi  Have you ever had Rockport speakers in your system? I’m curious how they have compared to everything else you have had. As others have said you are a tremendous asset to this forum.    Regards  Ron  
Top two most important sound qualities
Great thread! I was going to start one that was a top 5 so I’ll list my top 5 things that I want to achieve with my system. From least to most although they no doubt all fit together  1- great center image  2-clean sound with superb clarity and ... 
the big one: how do you choose speakers? By what features, data?
Go listen at a dealer if you can. I was able to do that but a big part of my decision to buy was the universal praise from people on this forum and WBF. If so many think the brand you are looking at are great then some of them must have a room sim...
