| Where do I go from here? Your biggest bottleneck to a broader and deeper soundstage from an equipment standpoint IMO (and assuming you've optimized speaker placement) is probably the preamp section of your prepro. A good dedicated stereo pre can really open up a system i... | |
| Interconnects and non-believers +1 @geoffkait Use your ears (they are the ultimate measuring device) and open your mind. If you still don't hear a difference then congrats -- you'll save a bundle. | |
| Interconnects and non-believers So elizabeth, you like audio and cars. Next you'll tell us you dig sports. I'm starting to believe you don't really exist. | |

| Where do I go from here? Before doing anything else, listen in stereo to one of your better recorded tracks that inherently has good broad and deep soundstaging. Now try pulling your speakers out another foot (don’t worry about what it looks like for now) and about 6' apa... | |
| Where do I go from here? Are you talking about 2-channel music too, or just multi-channel listening? | |

| Home theater design help I reiterate to buy and read Premium Home Theater (applies just as much to music as it does to HT). If you build the room properly then shape will not matter as much. Better sound can work hand in hand with isolation as methods such as using resi... | |
| McCormack DNA 0.5 Gold or what? There's a DNA-1 Rev A Gold+ available now on eBay. | |
| New Amps to match up with PSB T3 speakers It'll be interesting what you find after hearing the Belles preamp back in your system. I had a couple questions:- What cables, interconnects are you using?- Are you using any power conditioning? | |
| Home theater design help The best advice I can give is to read Premium Home Theater by Earl Geddes. It’s by far the best book I’ve read on room construction and acoustics because it explains theory in an approachable way and then covers in detail how to construct a room a... | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT or Wilson Sabrina What are your perceived strengths and weaknesses of each? What are the most important aspects of speakers and sound reproduction that are most important to you? Just curious and may have a thought based on your answers. | |
| Sound bar in a box . . . can't understand dialog. Cabinets and wives are the bane of audio and home theater. Not sure which I hate more, but at least cabinets don't talk. "ALERT! Wife is an interior designer so anything that does not fit inside box is not acceptable."Does your wife fit inside th... |
