Dana, that is a GREAT story. I'm so glad you were able to work everything out to your satisfaction. Like Sean, I am constantly amazed by just how critical room interactions can be. Especially with odd-shaped or open floor plans, there really is no practical way to model the science, so you just have to move pieces around and change settings in your own space.
I'm not at all surprised that positioning of the M80's impacted your experience. In addition to what they produce, they are also really big boxes. I think people underestimate how deep they are, and how the size of the enclosure can affect not only their placement, but also the sonic signature of the room.
Holy ****! I have to go on the forums and tell everyone I'm an idiot!
The bylaws are actually a little vague on timing in this area, but it's good that you discharged this requirement early on. It will make subsequent advancement much more straightforward. JP will send you an official "D'oh!" medallion when the next batch is produced.
