We recently relocated and I took the opportunity to simplify and pare down my system. I took all of the home theater elements that I had before we moved and sold them. Sonos and Sony are just fine for sports and the occasional movie. Music is where it’s at for me so I kept the good stuff. The new house is the same size as the old one, but configured very differently. Our living area is long and narrow with 12’ high ceilings to give it the illusion of space. It is airy and light and the system does not overpower the room like I thought it would. I’m probably going to have to put some room treatments in (once I find ones that won’t be so visually intrusive as to upset marital bliss) but even without them, it sounds great. I’m a classic rock, jazz, blues guy, so a lively room doesn’t bother me like it might some others.
