Nice setup NK, I like the blinds, they look like ours exceprt for a different color. The Parasounds aren't to bad either.

Beautiful setup, newkid! I really love the entertainment center...very elegant! I noticed you still have some pictures on the floor. I suggest hanging them in a place AWAY from that sub!

Do you have a hole on the bottom of those small tables holding up the QS8's?

You wouldn't want to be blocking the wonderful sound coming out of the bottom woofer.

There is a woofer on the bottom of the speaker that needs to be elevated.

You can take off the bottom grill and set the QS8s on some blocks (or soup cans) that don't block the woofer.

In reply to:

Either holes in the table, or mount them on the wall or on stands that allow the driver in the bottom of the speaker to operate. You can just prop them up on something temporarily if you wish. They only need about 3 inches of space beneath them for the driver to "breathe" properly.

Some have used soup cans to prop up the QS8s (how crass! ). I, on the other hand, went first class, and had each of my QS8s propped up on two stacks of paperback books for awhile. OK! OK! For a year. Stop laughing! They were very high class books!
