Is My Room Large Enough?
hi jd, i mentioned this as a possibility in a thread on the cable topic (?!?) called *excessive bass*. (?!?) any set-up that places the speakers asymmetrically in a room can be beneficial, especially for small rooms. it doesn't have to be complete...

Amp For Kinergetics SW800 s

Inner Sound Eros Experiences
