| Room too small - any suggestions Sit CLOSER to the speakers so you are in the direct radiating space, rather then back away from the speakers. I'd put the speakers far from the back wall and sit like 5 ft away. My $0.02 | |
| Power cords - a BASIC question One comment to make is that ALL equipment is 'voiced' to have a certain sound. changing the incoming power (from a wide/rough sinewave to a thin perfect one) may drastically alter the possible sound to a degree that it becomes "bad" My take on thi... | |
