Michael Fremer's system

Maybe I should invite him over here ? Anyone knows his email that he actually checks ?

I hope he has his records off the floor.  Water heaters eventually fail and he had records right beside his in the utility room. I like a tidy room but to each there own. Like he said it is a work space.

I suppose he certainly derives pleasure from his "work." I prefer to have separate work and leisure spaces. I also believe a cluttered space can make for a cluttered mind, but some thrive in such environments.

Every pair of speakers I’ve owned benefits from ample breathing room, especially when it comes to front-wall proximity. He claims his room treatments negate those boundary issues, but I have a hard time believing that claim. If he does experience bass issues, the culprit is no mystery.

That said, he owns some very nice gear. I love the look of his monoblock amps.

Great video. I think Michael Fremer is an honest and gifted reviewer. I wish I could visit his space and hear what it all sounds like. 

...That said, I am having trouble understanding why some comments here completely ignore what Fremer says. In fact, it strikes me that many comments here were made without making any effort to get past whatever bias the commenters bring.

Wow, that was illuminating. The tour will cause me to greet much of what he reports with a good deal of skepticism. The room is far too small for the speakers--not sure how he can report on soundstage depth or width given the placement. Or bass response for that matter. It matters not how much he spent or what gear he has--in that space he will get nothing better than mediocre sound.
