So far, I noticed that it sound a bit more boomy but I am not sure if it's because of this or the added Herbies's fat dots between my speakers and stands I inserted last Thursday that are settling in. But I would believe it's the furniture. I think I can work around that.
Glad to hear it - I'll be going through some of the same process as we settle into the new house. I think we're both in a stage now where we're trying our best to understand the constraints, configure things as well as we can, make the necessary compromises, and test. Some might call this obsessive, but I prefer to call it "the scientific process" . Then we settle on something satisfactory, and reach the stage of enjoyment. Of course, it's a journey, and the enjoyment can be thought of as a long stop before trying something new.
