@agisthos  That's very reasonable.

@agisthos  I was on their site, but they have no pricing, no distributers list and no links for buying their products. Sent an email and crossed my fingers.

@agisthos  I have contacted Elsdon Wonfors Audio regarding North American distributors but haven't heard back. Do you know of anyone selling them? I live in Vancouver, Canada.

@lonemountain  Side walls aren't the same. On the right side the distance is 36" - 42" depending on how it sounds. The right side is all patio doors and windows. The left side is around 8' to the adjacent wall and then opens into the kitchen. ...

@kb54  The stands are filled with something heavy already. Each one weighs about 25lb.  
13.2, 5.1 and so on. "the best seat in the house"
@deadhead1000  Actually I went through the same song and dance until I bought an integrated amp with a home theatre bypass option. This allows a AVR that has the ability to pre out the front channels separately to use the integrated to power the ...

@lonemountain  No identifying marks on the stands. They are all metal, powder-coated design that the original owner filled with something. Each stand weighs around 20lbs. Tried to make them ring, but all I got was a metallic thud. Front of spea...

@kota1  I had a look at the Dolby site, but everything seemed to be linked to Dolby Atmos? You should check out the Audio Physic speaker placement. I thought it was more progressive and more suited to two channel setups.

@lonemountain @kota1 Thanks. Due to the limits of the rooms 12’ distance from front wall to back wall, I will be doing more of a nearfield setup. I am guessing about 6’ from just behind my head to the top of the woofer. Distance between the spea...

@elliottbnewcombjr  Thanks for the tip. I actually have an older RadioShack SPL around somewhere and I think Tidal has some test tones available. At the moment I am doing some research into long wall placement using the Audio Physic guide. I re... 
Anthem vs Arcam
Can I offer some advise. If you want people to help you and offer actual advice, delete Audio Science Review from your life. ASR does not actually review audio components. They measure them and base everything on the numbers. Kind of like review... 
Over or under? - Standmount isolation
I think it would depend a lot on the design and quality of the stand you are using. If the centre of gravity is near the bottom of the stands then it shouldn't "wobble". Then adding isolation to the stand would be the best option.    
Five-channel, two-zone preamp?
@erik_squires  "Anthem processor with a 2 Channel system that has HT bypass" Exactly what I did. Anthem allows you pre-out just the front channels and my Musical Fidelity M6si has a HT bypass. Works like a charm. Waste of time trying to find a... 
Baffled and Frustrated: Streaming/DAC Sound Issues
@clearthinker  "it would appear no-one else understands these systems either. " No one said digital was easy.  No one said that trying to solve someone's issues from across the country was easy. What no one said was that because digital isn't ... 
Universal remote for Anthem 8k units
I just purchased a new LG OLED tv and my Harmony remote couldn't do anything with it. Ever since Loditech refused to update their software to handle 64 bit, its been a diminishing return. Good news is there may be options for making a profit on i...
