    I HIGHLY recommend a nice chair that'll get your ears 5'-6' from the speakers. A big comfy chair is all part of the experience :biggrin:

    Happy New Year, by the way!

    Let us know how that setup works out on the TT!

    :eek: moving in a few feet made a whole world of difference. Can't believe I was missing out on that much of what these speakers are capable of...top priority now is converting my bedroom into a dedicated listening room, and convincing my parents to let that happen...
