Mojo...My dimensions are now very similar and it has made a massive difference. Size does matter. Getting rid of the laundry room also left me with what is essentially a walk in closet behind where my gear was. Soooooooooo the bottom portion of that wall had to go as well. I now have my gear inset with lots of room behind to make any changes.There is also the added benefit of not having a rack between the speakers, potentially interfering with the sound. A work in progress but so far so good.

ALARMING NEWS; BREAKING NEWS: And it ain't fake news

I put on my Model T's tonight after working outside all day in near zero temps on firewood for the winter (F degrees for the record).

Good vinyl as always from the 80's with a lot of high end mixed bass which I have heard a thousand times before..... I was pouring myself a refill of 101 Bourbon and when exiting the kitchen to the back hall entrance (which opens up into the main living space with the gear), I was hit. Bass in the floor; something I have not experienced in the past from my Brystons and EP500. There was bass in the floor, it was felt.

Yes, there is driver break-in. That 12 inch driver opened up

Is the bottom of the 500 enclosure still in tact? LOL!

I'm sure Deb will be very surprised.

How far are you from the wall behind you? That makes a big difference as well.

I am quite close to the wall behind. I am about 1 foot from a very large window with heavy fabric drapes. Should theoretically limit reflection.

I suggest knocking down the wall and extending the room. That's thinking outside the box.
