| Terrible room. Contemplating headphones. Help http://www.silentsource.com/afoams-profoam.htmlPROFP022-6 should do it. I noticed audioadvisor has now jacked the price of that kit up to a rip-you-off $90. Its still $70 at silentsource and it wasn't long ago its claim to fame was only being a $5... | |
| Describe The Listening Room of Your Dreams... The problem with spheres and weird domes is it'll get into some weird acoustics where you'll be on the only one to hear the speakers depending on placement.

| Experiences with Cary 300 SEI headphone amp., You might want to pick your headphones first-that could affect you decision on amps (or at least look at everything from both sides). Stax come with their own amps so the Cary is useless. And some headphones are just easier to drive than others, s... | |

| Best receiver for sonus f. Grand Piano under 3000 Obviously for HT I would go Solid-state (I would usually always go solid-state, but since its five channels hopefully anyone would agree its just as well w/out any fight). Amps are amps over the years (technology doesn't really go obselete there, ... | |
| Best receiver for sonus f. Grand Piano under 3000 Looking into a seperate pre/pwr combo for the same money is also a good idea like underwoodwally mentions-the Sonus are a little too nice to be driven with a receiver. Its doable; but a nice power amp might benefit your system more. | |

| What's the best mid-range driver available? I believe Solen in Canada sells ATC (www.solen.ca) just for reference. What I don't get with the R-3's though, is I could swear I've seen design/kits using and R-3, but then crossed to an R-2 or R-1 to finish on up to 20khz ?????(Big Time)????? Un... |
