Removing components from between the speakers

I've read many of the previous threads on this question - longer IC's vs. longer speaker cables - but what I'm writing about is what I read in Jim Smith's book "Get Better Sound" about removing ALL components and racks between the speakers and setting everything up side-stage, so to speak.

Has anyone done this? If I do, it'll necessitate longer speaker cables and a longer set of IC's from the tt to the amp.

This post is getting beyond silly, as any Zen master can tell you the secret of life is to want what you have and not want what you don't have.
Easy to understand but can take a lifetime to do.

Having a dedicated listening room is what separates the serious audiophile from the dilettantes. Having that room designed by a professional acoustic engineer the is the pinnacle. Many if not most audiophiles will not get to that point. It's like getting into the club, but not getting into the VIP area.

Remember, tomorrow is another day.

Every body of every person in the room acts like a resonator. Start removing people from the room and the sound improves. The best sound is when there is nobody in the room.
