I went with absorption because there was a ton of room boom and slap echoI've had various components throughout my system. The only constant was the U... | |
| My first post, need some opinions about speakers Devore's are supposed to be the cat's meow with Shindo. Nice gear -- that's my dream stuff. Like that you play rock over those 'dainty' little Shindo's. Bet it sounds great. | |
