| Room Size (LxWxH): | 20 x 12 x 7.5 |
| Room Comments/Treatments: | Crappy Room - have to put speakers along long wall. Have a big indent-thing which creates extra corners for sounds to bounce around. Girlfriend would not put up with any room treatments, though. :( |
| Music Preferences and Comments: | |
| Music Used (Genre/Selections): | Rock/Electronic/Soul/Classical, everything from AC/DC to trance music to Prokofiev. (No jazz, though; for some reason it bores me.) |
| System Goals/Comments: | Ended up getting the Musical Fidelity pieces through the mail just 'cuz NYC dealers are such a pain. Also, high girlfriend acceptance factor (nice-looking, they are). But very happy, both seem to be great pieces. Already this system is probably overkill for this crappy room |
| System Strengths: | Power, detail, warmth, huge wide soundstage (speakers are along the long wall), big bass once a certain volume level is hit. |
| System Weaknesses: | Mostly from the room - lots of reflected sound, huge thumpin' bass can occasionally take over the room. |
| Video/HT System: None | |
