>>We're still talking about speakers here, right?

Yes... we... are... talking... about... speakers.

The layout isn't great today -- it's also temporary until I have time to move everything back to the other end of the basement where things sound better.

The mains and center are on a ~30 degree angle at one end of the room, sort-of in the corner. The long wall is split on one side by a stone fireplace and on the other side by a built-in bar that runs almost to the ceiling.

Like this. If I did this with M2s the sound would have been pretty bizarre, but with the QS8s it sounds quite normal.

3 foot high soup cans?

That's a lot of Campbell's Chunky!

Bren R.

Actually I think the soup is 'Habitant' pea soup

Yes, Habitant it is. Not to worry, Bren. The soup cans are on top of two stacked end tables. I only had enough soup cans for about a foot and a half and the result seemed a bit wobbly even for something I would build. Pics in this thread :

EDIT -- I believe Romeo deserves credit for the idea. He used four Campbell's cans instead, no doubt for increased clarity and tighter bass.

That clarity is Mmm Mmm Good!

Bren R.

True... but you can't stand a spoon up in it. It's not very thick bass.
