Tweaks: not yet--still getting used to things.
Room Size (LxWxH): 26 x 16 x 16
Room Comments/Treatments: A-frame; sheetrock to six feet, cedar t-i-g to peak of ceiling. Speakers on short wall--tried the long side, but lost a lot of depth. My listening chair is mobile, and I slide between 8-15 feet in front of the speakers, depending on the recording. Open to lower floor from 16--26 feet awway from speakers.
Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections): everything except opera and country.
System Goals/Comments: Just getting back into things after about a decade of background music. Would like to improve ttable--just got the NAD CDP and am very pleased.
System Strengths: dynamics; image; cost--best damn return on investment I've had in a long time....
System Weaknesses: need to treat the room to tame a 80-100Hz wave that shows up on certain recordings when the side-firing woofers are pointed out. Very clean when woofers are in, but a bit bass-shy....
Video/HT System: None
Other Interests/Hobbies/Occupation: musician (bass player; acoustic guitars)gamma geek; educator/researcher/librarian
