No the room isn’t acoustically accurate

What do you mean? Your room is perfectly acoustically accurate to your settings. You have 4 symmetrical bass/sound traps centered on your ceiling, repurposed old rough pole barn beams affixed to the wall, rough cut firewood stacked in a recessed 4’ x 9’ wall pocket, a 10’ x 15’ rug in the center of the room, a almost full length wood wall panel, a wood sculpture on another wall and what people tend not to count as acoustic treatment, is the furniture in the room itself.

Well done. @fire_water as I’m also in the construction industry, and I know how much time, work (and money) went into that ’isn’t acoustically accurate room’.

@tyray you are insightful! You are correct about the elements in the room although the 4 box ceiling clouds and the Quadratic Residue Diffuser you see are actually 3D renderings of what I'm going to do.  I wasn't sure about the size or the colors available so I incorporated them in a rendering.  And I'm glad I did because the larger 32x64 clouds were too imposing and white didn't give that intimacy I'm striving for.  But the fire wood and the stacked 250 yr old beams that divide the music room from my home gym do provide diffusion. It's now just a matter of time before I order these box clouds. 

@rok2id yes Sketches of Spain' by Miles Davis! Thanks for reminding me

@tyray geez it's pretty embarrassing but as far as interconnects go I'm currently using a boutique brand ConneX The NATURAL ONE Balanced XLR Interconnects but I placed an order for Signature SE Silver XLR Interconnects by audiosensibility.com as they offer a 30 day return policy,  but I heard them and they are fantastic and beautiful. 

My USB is Anzus X2.  I recently tried an Audience FrontRow USB but the Innuos Pulsar and Accuphase DC-37 literally  comes to life with the Ansuz!

I also replaced the Innuos factory cord with a custom FURUTECH DPS-4.1 (OCC-DUC) 11AWG Power Cable and Furutech AC FI-50-NCF(R) IEC Female and Furutech AC FI-50M-NCF(R) Plug Male. The Innuos Pulsar literally woke up!!!

I'll probably look into spkr cables also by audiosensibility.com 

* it's crazy how both the Ansuz X2 USB and the Furutech custom power cord bring live to the system. I'm hearing micro detail, clarity and authority like never before.

Good find on the other 990 albums on the list.  I have a bunch of them, but I wonder how long it will take me to listen to them all?🤣
