If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments?

Yeah you may need an absorption panel if your room is completely open, ie. No rug or furniture, ie just lonely single chair. But if your system can't cut it in any room then it's a system problem and you should be able to discern a good system regardless of the room.  Unless you put it on the roof of your apartment building but the Beatles seemed to have survived that effort

I think people go nuts with all this absorption acoustical room treatment stuff and it looks kind of awful.  Once in a while you see a really cool looking diffuser panel and I would definitely want one. But to have a system that works really well without any of the acoustical panel distractions is a wonderful thing.

During the fall they make sense otherwise a lot of people would probably be dying from heart attacks. However during the summer when there’s no leaves it makes more sense to use a broom to quickly disperse errant leaf blades.

I believe it’s terribly inconsiderate to be revving leaf blowers sometimes two or three of them at the same time and serenading your neighbours with disturbing noise. It may not bother the person using it but it certainly bothers the people who have to listen to it.

I find people generally pretty inconsiderate a lot of times. We’re only here for like 70 years while being gradually replaced by others so why not make it somewhat pleasurable for other people while here.

What’s really ridiculous about this repeated whine of yours is that you act like they are running blowers 24/7. It takes all of a few minutes for clean up once a week.. Surprised that you aren’t calling for everyone to get on their knees and hand clip the lawn versus using mowers. The horror of it all.

Emerging well I think you just need to deal. You simply do not have the right to complain about others using such devices. Further, you dont have the right to determine when, how and for how long such devices should be used. Dont let an irritant become an obsession.

Well this is enlightening. My family can complain to me about playing my hi-fi too loud and maybe they have no right to do this. My neighbour plays a leaf blower too loud and it interferes with my phone calls inside my house I have no right to complain about that.

Further I have no right to complain about how wrong it is not to be able to complain about something.

The world according to those who use leaf blowers. Tom Hanks needs a new movie and I think this is a perfect fit.

You are so funny. Isn't it clear I love attention as well as learning so much wisdom offered by so many talented people who participate on this forum.

@emergingsoul  , I wasn't intending to be funny.  For quite some time I thought that your postings resembled @jumia  's posts, and then you did the leaf blower post, and the only other posts I read complaining about leaf blowers was from @jumia, so I was just asking if at one time you had gone by that screen name.  That's all.
