Hi folks
this is just a experience i want to share with all of you.
I have my music system in drawing hall consisting of a yam avr and WF floorstanders. The hall is filled with a set of plus sofas.
Last month the sofas were removed for repair. So my hall became empty.
I just put a chair in middle in front of the system and started it. To my shock, the system was performing like on 'steriods'. A bare hall made so much difference.
For music i used to play around -15 volumes , but in the bare room if i crossed -20 or -19 it was enough. The bass was also powerful.
I wonder when we have demo of a system at a dealer it sounds great becos it is given in a bare room,done most probably with acoustic treatement and the system has been of course broken in.
Now my sofas have returned so has the earlier sound. The punch in the system is gone.
I think to get the best of a system you need a proper done up HT room which will probably cost twice the cost of the system.
regards
