Small Room, Big SoundI also meant to add a quick explanation of the pic I posted showing the effect of the active isolation under the TT. This is a composite of three traces from the TS-150's display. It shows two hori... posted over 8 years ago | View comment | |

Small Room, Big Sound@shadorne -- thanks for the kind comments about my system. As you might appreciate I was somewhat constrained by the size of room available to me -- it actually started out roughly 1-2' deeper (i.e... posted almost 9 years ago | View comment | |

Small Room, Big SoundThe room size in itself is a bit of a story, I had originally imagined it would be bigger (maybe more 12x20) such that we could use the length but then we had to start building the double walls and... posted over 9 years ago | View comment | |
