OK, not sure if this will make sense. The reason I got into recording and love music stems from really liking to listen to music. When I was in the Army, I purchased stereo equipment that cost me a years pay. Maybe 6 months, but it was like $3000 I paid for my stereo on a private's pay. So, here is the point, getting the stereo set up and then sitting in the sweet spot. Either you understand this term or ...
OK, fast forward, I have purchased SDCD's, Dobly Audio, Quad (yea, no I didn't) but trying to get a better sweet spot. I have this new stereo (OK, probably 5+ years, but it is still a good piece of equipment) and I was pushing back at using some of its new technology, faux surround, Dolby logic, sofort and so on. But I think I hit on it. 5 speaker stereo! That means 5 sweet spots.
Speaker set up large speakers up front, L/R, rear speakers R/L. That give you 5 sweet spots. Everyone in the room gets a sweet spot!
Anyone else try to also get a great sound out of your stereo equipment? What do you do? By the way, room treatment really works when "tuning" the room for listening, not just the EQ selector.
