| Small room....treating 1st reflection points I referenced the Nextacoustics site above and want to mention they use the exact same foam used in Auralex products. Pretty sure their web site mentions this and I can attest to this as I have products from both. Also, both companies are located o... | |
| Opinion on Linn AV 5105 Linn's switch mode power supplies were trash in my experience. I forget which model it was but the SMPS died pretty quickly. | |

| Ways to connect subwoofer? I'd go with option #1. I had the same sub and ran it that way with a Bel Canto Pre3. It worked fine. | |

| Anything you can put between spikes and carpet? Grimace, I just checked your system. Nice stuff. Love your system pics. | |

What it was for me was a tinny, no-bodied amp. Really surprised me.Second, and a bigger disappointment was a... | |
| Have I Hit The Point Of Diminishing Returns? My listening room is nearly identical to yours and I recently tried something that made me sit up and say whoa.I set my system in a diagonal configuration after reading this. The increase in soundstage depth alone was worth the effort. But honestl... | |
| A moving story Audio Physics Caldera II Hey, we can meet at Walmart!! ;)We are neighbors! I live in the Highland Springs subdivision north of I74. If you need a pair of speakers while your Calderas are down I have a few spares. Unfortunately, nothing at that level. | |

| Eminent Technology LFT8b If you search the speaker forum for Eminent Technology you'll find lots of threads. I owned a pair of the LFT VIIIs five or six years ago. They didn't work for me at all. Johnny Cash never sounded like Johnny Cash should. That's what I remember mo... | |
