I am currently using a KEF LS50 and it sounds great in my treated room in 12x11x9 room. I have been thinking about getting a floor stander in their using DSP but I abandoned that idea recently after hearing some non-DSP capable electronics. So now... 
Enjoying my Audience Au24Sx Speaker Cables, wondering how much better are the Front Row?
I spent some time last night going over the various permutations of how to rack my system and the best location for the rack. Taking into consideration issues like my single power conditioner that I currently own and not wanting to run very long p... 
Enjoying my Audience Au24Sx Speaker Cables, wondering how much better are the Front Row?

Which would you choose; Pass 250.8, arc 75SE or luxman m900u?
@erik_squires I already have the GIK acoustics treatments and they transformed my room in an incredibly positive way. However, I was trying to be audacious and put in a big floor stander into my very small room. Thus the investigation into DSP pre...
