Big upgrade


I just installed a projector in the "media room" portion of our finished basement. By doing this, I was able to ged rid of the 50" plasma that sat between my speakers. WOW, what an upgrade! The soundstage exploded in all directions. Most noticeably, depth. It makes sense that removing a large, acoustically reflective rectangle from the middle of the speakers would make a difference, I just wasn't expecting such a huge difference.

No problem, Ebm, but you got to realise that sometimes we have revelations or problems with our systems and we want to discuss it with other members.

You`re welcome to take part in any threads that I initiate.
I've been told that one would get a big improvement by placing an acoustic panel in front of a big screen while just listening. Haven't done it yet but it seems to make sense.
Somebody correct me if I`m wrong, but to get decent depth staging, your speakers have to be at least 3-5 ft. from ANYTHING in the rear.
I meant YOUR thread. Maybe I`ll just shut the hell up now, read the rest of the guys input and learn something!
