| Sonus Faber Olympica III speaker placement All of my measurements are to the tweeter. Some people might feel differently, but I believe glass of any kind to be killers in the pursuit of good sound. If it’s a window that has to be used, then maybe a thick noise cancelling drape to cover it.... | |
| Sonus Faber Olympica III speaker placement I have the Olympica III's in a dedicated listening room measuring 22' x 16' x 9'.I have them 50" from the front wall, 44" from the sides, 104" between the speakers, with my ears exactly 104" to each tweeter. They are toed in so they fire just outs... | |

| Sonus Faber Olympica III or Vienna Acoustics Lists Assuming you haven't set the Olympica's up yet, let us know what you think when you have them broken in. The times I've heard them, they really seem to get to the heart of the music. All the meat is there on the bone, without appearing to obscure ... | |

| How far from the back wall are your speakers? I'm a proponent of the Rule of Thirds...So the center of speaker drivers are 80.268" from the front wall. | |
| Best Speaker for classical music Audiooracle....do the honorable thing and divulge that you sell Scaena's. It's bush league to do otherwise. | |

| is there a best music player on the computer? Tbg,JPlay is limited to Vista on up to the current. In Hibernation mode, it truly embarrasses all of the other software I have here, including JRiver. It is the difference between a nice, detailed system....and the event playing out within the wal... | |
| Jplay Mini Tom,The music does play from memory in hibernation mode. I have 8gb of memory, and the memory set in Jplay to 4gb. I've heard people get good results with 4gb of system ram though. I'd say that would be a baseline minimum though. | |
