Nice chair. Put some wheels on it and you're in business!To some degree, i do what I can do. View attachment 66567
I will try. I have a long ways to go. I was so stunned last night, and my wife was out for an hour or so. I sat and enjoyed 3 of my favorite albums.
King, if you've caught any of my posts you'll
Thanks guys. A while back I bought a rail system to make a barn type sliding door to close the kitchen hole. My wife is a bit suspect of it all. I also talked with a contractor about getting a pocket door in there. That is a bearing wall. It carries a lot of load. I dropped the ceiling on the other side of the wall in the nook area. That would all need to be take out to get supports under the floor joist above before the wall could be opened and a beam put in. So Im back to the sliding barn door. If I can find some nice worm wood for a decent price, I may try and slip it in one day. Prior to even thinking about reflections. I wanted the door to block the sound of my Subzero Refridgerator from getting into the living room. It seems to run all the time.
I could try a pair of subs. Always heard they are best in pairs. But where do you put them. From what I have read, they don't like corners. They want to sit between my speakers. That real estate isnt really available. So I don't have subs for now.
I'm pretty pleased by what I heard just getting them into the room more. I need to spend a lot more time now finding the best dept, width, toe and seat position. I wish I could have some friends over. Its nice to have someone in the hotseat while you make small adjustments.
The sliding "barn" door sounds like a better idea. The pocket doors would likely rattle with no way to stop it.
The subs can go in the corner as long as they have some capability of eq. You don't want them crossed over high. You get the sense of space from the bass that is below 40Hz. Part of it comes from having one sub phase different from the other which causes the sound pressure wave to move from left to right (or right to left). Your ears pick up the pressure delta as envelopment and space.
My Zus have built-in downfiring subs. I have them crossed to my main drivers at 39Hz. They are also independently adjustable for phase. Are you suggesting experimenting with different phase settings for each speaker could prove worthwhile?The sliding "barn" door sounds like a better idea.

Willdo, my system is pretty neutral as things stand, so any differences should be discernable. Will remember to keep a 90° difference btwn R and L. I've just made a small positive change to my supertweeters as well.I know that seems weird. But easy to do and put back if you dont like it. Only adjust one sub relative to the other. Turn the phase knob 90 degrees on on one of them. So if the left is at 20 degress make the right 110 degrees and give it a listen. Duke Le June introduced this concept to me.
