How U determine first and second reflection points
Tvad, I think we'd exhausted the subject anyway.Well Cdc, If you want to see that first reflecting point on a permanent basis I suppose that's useful - why else would you want a mirror on the ceiling? 
How U determine first and second reflection points
Oh - Zargon has a good point. The rear reflections are probably worse than from the sides. I've deadened both walls enough to tame that form of standing wave.

Ah, C5150 - yes, in fact sound travels in straight lines - it's not real good at going around corners. Try having someone else stand in front of your speakers - see what I mean. Sound = straight line.Reflections of straight lines = standing waves ...

Fmpnd - Ya snooze you lose guy. Sorta germain to this thread - mirro, mirror on the wall, who's the smartest....;-)No excuses man.What were you supposed to be doing anyway? I'm "Working from Home".

Eandylee - Correct, however there are actually more if you take the floor and ceiling into account, and don't discount them as they are quite significant. It's easy to put a rug on the floor - a bit more difficult on the ceiling.

Better yet - YOU sit at your normal listening position, have someone else slide a large mirror (One of those back-of-the-bathroom door mirrors works well) along the walls. When you see the reflection of the speaker in the mirror, that's your first...

Regarding DK Design Vs.1 Reference Mk2 amp ???
I refer to "universal player", (as I believe most do) as being inclusive of the DVD-A and SACD formats, which is why I commented that I wouldn't waste the time to include them given the reality of those formats in the market.Many or most of the un... 
Regarding DK Design Vs.1 Reference Mk2 amp ???
Why consider a universal player for formats that are essentially dead? I have had two universal players, and have 20 discs. I won't buy more discs or another multi player.Put the time, money, effort into a first rate red book player.

Need help integrating my sub. Is an EQ the answer?
All right, if you want to keep what you've got, then the first way to adress the placement issue is to put your sub where you intend to sit, and walk around the room and see where it sounds loudest - that's where you'll place it.Will an EQ help? S...
