One more comment and then I‘ll stop. Promise.
This is about my room. I just thought of this. True story: The Heating and Air guy was here the other day to service my heat pump. He saw my listening room and took an interest in the room treatments. We were standing in the “Zone“, ie right in front of my listening position. I said to him, “Listen to my voice. Note how clear and crisp my voice sounds. This is not like a typical room that has some echo that would smear the sound of my voice.“. Then I clapped my hands a couple of times and I told him to remember how that sounds. So when we were outside, I clapped my hands again so he could hear how similar it sounded to the clap in my listening room.
