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
