Huge room. Great tree.
It would be interesting to hear how the speakers sound in a room with so much volume.

Jim, the boys at Axiom did an amazing job with cabinet resonances, so luckily there have been no mad sprints to catch falling decor! Although, it would get my wife to stop putting stuff up there. Chess, the sound is very "open" and unconstrained, although the room is a bit on the "live" side. A throw rug really is in order. If you ever make it out to SW Ontario, look me up!

I think i know what you mean. I believe i prefer a smaller room, more intimate sound enclosure. Our main floor is rather 'open' as well (not as tall ceilings but some are 12' and it is open into the large kitchen and nook with hardwood and laminate flooring, no heavy curtains). The media room is much more sound dampened and smaller and sealed. The sound for anything i've put down there so far has been stellar, just absolutly stellar. Jordan and a few others have come around for auditions and they can attest to some of the great sound sessions we've done.

I will be in the KW area sometime this year for the 50th UW anniversary. Alumni are returning en masse.

I publicly attest to the great sound over at Chessaroo's place. Job well done.
Cheers,

Yes Peter and unfortunately my visit to KW will happen long before i see my brother again. I think it's been about 2 years now and counting.
Now with these new passport regulations in effect, i have to get my application in and done before i can fly to the US anymore. What a pain. The Canadian snowbirds are all crashing the government gates lately so the waiting time is huge.

Thank you John. I'll try to stop by more often in '07. Building a new house will limit my abilities to do anything but fight with the contractor. When it's time to design my "selfish room", I'll be around to ask for plenty of advice.
