Room Size (LxWxH): 20 x 12 x 10-16'
Room Comments/Treatments: Wife factor--listening across width !!! Allows only about 7' triangle, still sounds pretty good though. I guess this is nearfield listening !!!
Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections): All--as long as it's good
System Goals/Comments: The Thiel 1.5's work well here; originally used the 2 2's and set up on length. Then the new furniture arrived, width was the best I could negotiate. Could be worse!
System Strengths: Wonderfull full range, soundstage, presence, bass is adequate and snappy but not as powerfull and full as with the 2 2's on the room length.
System Weaknesses: see above--but only minor. The system sounds very, very good actually.
Video/HT System: None
