| Homage to those who are pleased with your audio rig @baylinor There is rockwool in between all the studs. I have 1/4 inch pegboard screwed and glued right to the studs all sides. The two walls behind the speakers that is all there is with fabric over the pegboard. The 3 walls opposite the speaker... | |
| Homage to those who are pleased with your audio rig @baylinor i agree that anything behind drywall wouldn’t work very well. Having a smallish room I did end up killing 2 birds with one stone. I had an acoustician design the room and I built it while the speakers were being built. I have no drywal... | |
| Homage to those who are pleased with your audio rig @baylinor A fantastic system indeed. I was just curious if you had considered building absorption right into the walls and ceiling to eliminate the need for bass and first reflection traps. Regards Ron | |
| My last Integrated Amp: $5-10,000? +2disc!!! The 866 is superb! | |
| Audioquest Storm Series power cables I would say that if any improvement can be made the last 6 feet is where to try it. Anything before the panel is irrelevant. | |
| What's the heaviest speaker you've ever owned? What's the tallest? @cakeaudio Which one do you like more? | |
| Advice from Audiogon family - best speaker $3k-$4k +1 Focal used Kanta 2 possibly in your budget. Good luck ! | |
| What's the heaviest speaker you've ever owned? What's the tallest? Rockport Avior ii. 46 inches tall 220 lbs each | |
| Bose 901's in an acoustically treated room? @g_nakamoto Let’s see some pics! I’ll bet it looks awesome! | |
| Focal Sopra, Kanta, Aria @onehorsepony We have Kanta 3s in our family room. They are not too bright. I suspect it is your room that needs some work to dial them in. The Sopras are really nice too. They also look way better than the Kantas IMO. Good luck ! Ron | |
| How Much Do Your Subwoofer(s) Cost Relative to Speakers @james633 You are correct. I probably wouldn’t want them next to my Rockports. Would like to at least hear them though. Regards Ron | |
| Nordost Valhalla 2 Speaker Cables @nyev My apologies if I gave the impression of having the Odin level PC. I unfortunately can’t afford that level of cabling. I’m only at the Heimdall level with everything which still sounds great but I would love to be able to move up. I have e... | |
| Nordost Valhalla 2 Speaker Cables @nyev I heard the B&W speakers at Axpona. For some reason they had the smaller ones in the good room and the new big ones in a small room. The smaller ones in the good room sounded really good. I have Rockport Avior ii speakers and i think y... | |
| Nordost Valhalla 2 Speaker Cables @nyev It sounds like it’s time to upgrade your speakers to the level of your other top notch gear. Is that in the plans too? regards Ron | |
| Nordost Valhalla 2 Speaker Cables @rsf507 What cables did you find that give you the meat on the bones you were looking for ? I would imagine the top end brightness was also due to your speakers being on the bright side as well. |
