and if you want to get rid of room problems get the Townshend podiums, they stop speaker vibrations down to three Hertz and also they get rid of the constant Earth vibration that's there all the time, when your speakers shake it smears the sound they're not cheap but they get rid of almost all room problems.
Recommendations for HiFi Listening Room
Newbie here. Wife and I are looking to turn our Great Room into a listening room. It’s roughly 21’X’19 and has a cathedral ceiling that is 11’ tall at the wall and 20’ tall at the apex. Spoke to a good hifi dealer in the area who made the following recommendations/proposal and I’m curious if this group may have any input for getting maximum bang for my buck. Basically, with a budget around 35k (or thereabouts) would you buy something similar or are there any components you’d add or swap out?
Paradigm Persona 3F
McIntosh MA8950
Pro-Ject Xtension 9 w/ Ortofon Black Cartridge
Sony ES DSD Music Server (this one concerns me a touch in that it appears to be an 8 yr old product line).
Thanks so much in advance for your collective expertise. My wife isn’t going to let me drop money into this for another 15 years so I need to get it right the first time.
If it matters, our musical taste is quite varied: classical, jazz, classic rock, alternative, hip hop. My mother complained in my youth that if i had 10 bucks I would just buy a CD with it. She is still right.
