I have no control over what people do with their listening rooms, so that point is moot to me. The sordid details of their listening room are theirs alone to solve.This is strictly asking people that reply to the post to make a statement as to wha... 
A full range speaker?
Yes.   Suppose I framed it differently. Have you ever had bookshelf or stand mount speakers that you consider full range?If you spend enough, of course you can buy full range speakers. But some decent ones can be had for under $3kThe term full ran...

Oh, one other thing, all of the Humble Home Made HiFi's that are round wire coils use Litz wire, out of all of their photos, only a couple are not.

@oldhvymechYou really do need a a soundproof supply room to break a lot of this stuff in, speakers to caps.I'm speculating early on in my research on cables so far, without a complete understanding, so FWIW: I do think there is something to your e...

Allow me to over explain.The process, then you can judge me to your hearts content, based on the facts and without all of the speculation. And of course, I never retract anything, so I’ll slowly try a nudge this post back to discussing what is per...
