Ignorance, when it comes to audio, truly is bliss.

Last night as I was walking back home from a neighborhood restaurant, one of those "farting" cars drove by. You know the ones with the over-driven bass drivers in the back that cause the entire trunk to vibrate at 35Hz. Sounds like a farting car, to me.

How's that bliss pmbuko - I can't imagine how that is fun, as that isn't the way it's supposed to sound - lol.

bliss for those who are ignorant. I.E.:

"Wow, these BOSE speakers sound awesome!"
"Check out my trick-a$$ subwoofer, yo!"

DJ- Yeah the Ionic breeze works well in my theater which is approx 2400 cubic feet (not square). It takes care of about 75% of my problem, and I do not have to dust as often. Which is nice b/c not only do I have my gear in there, I also have my MR props, and Gentle Giant minibusts in there also. Even though they are all in protective acrylic cases it's still a PITA to dust.

BTW, nobody goes into my theater unless I'm there unless they like broken bones. That is what the family room is for.
