    They raised Zappa from the dead and they're sending him on tour to pay for it

    I'm so glad I got to see him in Philly, the Tower Theater, before he passed.

    The Absolute Sound finds religion! Acoustics are important, they say.

    Wow. These remarks are shocking.

    I used a fairly thin, long finishing nail. It will only take a tiny dab of a caulk to fill the slightly larger then tack holes when the time comes.

    The Absolute Sound finds religion! Acoustics are important, they say.

    Acoustics isn't a new science. I find it tough to understand why these folks spending massive amounts of cash on gear refuse to embrace treating their rooms. At a certain point the gaines they all strive for on crazy upgrades probably couldn't be heard anyway in the echo chambers that are their...

    First LPs, now cassettes? What happened to quality???

    Yes, 99% of all my tapes were copies LP's. The prerecorded tapes nearly always sucked. I always found that to a point you needed to use quality tapes. Studios were never going to do that for mass market recordings. There was a tape produced by memorex that I recall being among my favorites. You...

    First LPs, now cassettes? What happened to quality???

    The best sound I ever got back in the day was reel to reel. After that was LP. With that said a good quality deck, tape, along with a 3db expander offered some very good sounding copies. Cassettes were not all bad. Not much use for them today but they could sound damn good.

    And by properly place them he means drop them off at my place. An important detail he left out.

    Thanks for shedding some light on what I was hearing. I thought I was going goofy. I should have stated in what area of the freq range I'm noticing this. I'd say in the 180hz-60hz area's. I've not yet listened to any hard hitting bass stuff like rap. I've also not played any movies. Breaking bad...

    Now that the room is, not done, but well treated, I can give an idea of the results. My initial thoughts were I may have over done it a little. After a few more hours of listening I dont think that's the case. Overall there is a much warmer sound. The instruments as well as voices are much...

    Trigger pulled - PSA 15V

    Agreed. Especially since your just looking for lows for the sake of movie affects. If trying to tame room issues for music listening then it would make more sense. Of course only if your willing to place the subs in the correct spots for the job. You may get more of what you want from a couple...

    Turntable action

    You've got a good look going on in your family room. Since I dont ever see you really doing any critical listening with LP's your choice makes perfect sense.

    Not sure which way I'm going to go, DIY Helmholtz or some store bought solution. After I measure the rooms response I'll know better, with Franklin's help what's best.
