Using this methodology the speakers would be in place before equipment that might change their response. After adding a sub or room correction (not to mention battery powered interconnects), the speakers may require tweaking. I agree that if we were to use the photo thread as example, a lot of the systems could use a basic 'foundation laying' set up. That wouldn't be a tweak, just common sense. Now lets say I use single drivers that are largely immune to haas effect, but at the expense of rising response in the high frequencies. Listening to an album that's recorded too hot, I might toe the speakers in a couple degrees, a quite effective tweak IMO. I say put your speakers on swivel chairs/casters until you find the perfect place in your room. Tomtjx and I are going to make a remote controlled version; think AI robots with speakers for heads and RTA ears. They will also accommodate you in blind testing, by switching component settings on command or sneakily. -- Skunk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Skunk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2685 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33956 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
