@mijostyn @erik_squires   Thank you both, bunches. I’m learning a lot already. Eric, the room is semi-anechoic, not anechoic. The floor would have to be treated as well, which it most certainly is not. In my last home, I did the room this way...

@erik_squires   thank you Eric. I am working on finishing the room. All the walls are 5” rock wool. The gable ceiling is 12” rock wool. All covered with fire resistant burlap instead of sheet rock. The floor is hard wood. Essentially, a semi-...

Thank you @mijostyn ​​​​@mahgister This is not about a subwoofer. The reason I ask is that I have a pair of Altec Lansing 604Cs and I now, as of last night, was able to get a 604D to match the 604D that I already have. I am currently using t...

Curious to know what you guys think/like about Pink Floyd's early work

the big one: how do you choose speakers? By what features, data?
1 - compatibility  2 - how it sounds, to my ears.   
Storage boxes. Can I discard high end shipping boxes, and still sell in the future?
I acquired most of my equipment second hand.    I never gave thought to whether or not it came in it’s original box. Most of the time, it did not.

@carlsbad2    I took another look.  I do believe that I read it as written.   
Modifying Crossovers
I have a pair of Altec Lansing 604Cs. Their stock crossovers are bright, cheaply made and have always been regarded as an afterthought. I replaced them with a pair of Doug Sax’s Mastering Lab https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7mW8BF-Bvw and https:... 
Modifying Crossovers
@carlsbad2  Wow! $100,000 on .... drum roll please ... crossovers!  And I thought cable interconnect folks were obsessed.  
Admitting my error…
@grislybutter u r welcome  
Audiophiles on Audiogon.
@jackhifiguy pretty much calls everyone here stupid and then asks for feedback from the very same. I guess I must be stupid because I’m struggling to figure out how that works. As for the link to the DAC: A) I don’t use them and B) its just a bun...
