Thx @audio_bidder 

I’ve squeezed about as much out of this current room config as I can and I’m not hearing what I want to. Next step is the 90° rotation game and modifying acoustic treatments to whatever degree my wife will tolerate. 

I’m really happy with the Mojo digital front end. I built it up one top end piece at a time and it’s become an anchor in my system. Benjamin @Mojo is a good guy.

Love the aesthetic of the room! You have taste. Very intrigued by the Mojo digital products.

Don't give up on rearranging speaker position, I went from the supposed "optimal" setup (which never sounded right to me) to rotating 90 degrees and never looking back. Had to change all my acoustic panels but it was worth it in the long run.

Thx, @linnie01 

I feel fairly certain my room is not working well. I spent 5-6 hours auditioning well broken-in 0/96s with a Leben 300 which is not much of a departure from my Decware Torii IV. The sound was quite nice. I’m trying to be patient and settle in for a few months before I consider changes. I may rotate my room 90° to try sitting and listening with different geometry.

Very surprised the Devore’s are not floating your boat so far after 200+ hours.
I have never heard this before.  Could be several factors involved.  I assume you spent considerable time auditioning them before purchasing.

I’d reach out to John Devore about it.  He, if anyone, should have some valuable insights / suggestions regarding your equipment pairing, room, etc.

At the end of the day, if nothing works for you, it happens sometimes, albeit being financially and emotionally painful.

Fingers crossed, the O96’s make you smile.

Thx, All. I’m 200+ hrs in and kinda freaking out that the speakers haven’t dropped my jaw. Trying to be patient and play with positioning.
