The last month was strange. We undergo a minor house overhaul.
It started from the fact that we looking around the house and discoed two extra

[quote user="noviygera"] Is there a pill for that too? Seriously, it would be very interesting to hear what solution you come up with because I have converted from listening music solo to a small number of audience (friends). So much that I listen by...

[quote user="oxric"] Your listening room probably needs to be heard to be fully appreciated but I am sure that in terms of ambient noise, good as it is, it could be better. You have these large doors opening on the outside and I have a feeling your h...

I would like to share a concept that is not widely understood or even not formulated in mind of many audio people but something the has a tremendous importance to me personaly. The readers of my site know that I do not like the concept of dedicated ...

In response to my post above a friend of my wrote to me: “Soon you'll be spending more time there than the listening room :-)”. This is a very interesting concept and I would like to share my thoughts about it. A listening room and a video room are d...

Maybe, but from a practical perspective, theory can be pretty useless as the listening experience is the cumulation of many factors. My experience (if you care) is that at lower frequencies, room modes get increasingly more difficult to address but ...

Well, I need to admit that with arriving Thomas and to a
degree with adopting Amy my relationship with my listening room have changed.
It is not the relationship change but the volume that listening room occupies in
my daily practice. I very much ...

It is well known that the requirements to acoustic environment for life music and for audio installations are very different. For life music we need much more what we would call in audio “live” acoustic setting, letting the instruments to breat...

I am pretty happy with how high temperature handling is happening in my room. Not perfect but still pretty good. As Summer eventually came to New England and my room hit 85 some thoughts become to hatch and pop up in my head. I would like to share s...

It is interesting development going on in my listening room. Amy the Kitten is making her hands dirty to convert our man-cave nerdy house into something that we as a family would enjoy. With all horror that this move would inflict in the heart of...

Petar,I thought for along time how to reply to your post. All my thoughts basically narrow down to this. You're a soulful guy. There is nothing smart I can say to add or subtract to you findings but I think that the result you will finally get from y...

Today is a first great warm day in Boston and was working at my yard, fixing the fence around the pool. I was good 120-150 feet away from my listening room, pretty much in the forest, the large French doors to the room were opened and the playback wa...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] For a casual observer it might appear that I am constantly fought with my ULF, finding and loosing better and worse configurations. It might be so but I have a very strong sense of objective of what I would like to ac...

Hi Keith and congratulations for your new babies... I'm truly jealous of your room size.Me too, as I previously wrote, assembled a VERY similar rig, vastly inferior to you welded supports, any, using the same approach: S-150, S-3000 and S-400, respec...

I always said that appearance of listening room has own harmony and in many cases just a look at a listening room gives you an internal image about the music you associated with the room’s feel. My own listening room has different feeling at day and ...
