I would advise a consultation with Jeff at HD Acoustics. He specializes in small room acoustics. He designed my new listening room and it would be well worth it to have him take a look at your room. Good luck! Ron

What is up with everyone playing the same style of music mostly. Are all shows like this? Had a great time but the music got old.   
Acora speakers at Axpona
@gelfdaddy  I was wondering as I do have the Avior ii and they are amazing. I had never heard of the Acoras until the show and it would of been a more difficult choice if I had heard them. Happy listening    Ron

@gelfdaddy  Were you able to listen to  Rockports before you decided on the Acoras? The Avior ii is in the same price range. I would describe the Avior ii similar to your description of the Acoras. Amazing detail zero harshness. No listening fati...

Had a great time at my first show. Heard the Wilson Alex and alexia. They sounded good. I must of missed the Benesch or don’t remember them. Apologies. So much to see. The Goebel speakers on the top floor were amazing !

Break in time probably depends on the surround material. Mine took 300-400 hours and the difference in the bass performance was huge. Happy listening   
When You Buy The Whole Album And Only Like One Song.

If you can stretch your budget a bit higher the Rockport Avior ii would be well worth an audition. Matches well with your Diablo 300.

Just convince your wife how much better a floor stander will sound and look great too! If that doesn’t work bribe her. That’s what I did with our family room. Check it out on my page. Good luck !    Ron   
Your thoughts on my quest for new speakers
Are you looking for end game speakers/amp? Rockport Avior ii paired with the Boulder 866 would fit the bill. Good luck! Ron   
Can a great system make a mediocre recording sound good?
If a high end system is better at at processing the signal ( reducing EMI, RFI etc.) wouldn’t that give a  bad recording the impression of sounding better at least in some aspects?   
I wonder what you would think if we scheduled a monthly Zoom Meeting?
Perhaps a zoom call for everyone is a bit difficult but it’s still a great idea. How about having zoom in the private message area where just a few people could get together. Or how ever many would like to.    Ron

@hilde45   I tried to exchange info just this week and the moderators filtered it and wouldn’t allow it. I couldn’t even use the word text or email. I couldn’t even share a pic of my system with this gentleman. Did I do something wrong?    Ron
