"Get Better Sound"

i read the book. aisde from the technical details on speaker st up, i believe experienced hobbyists won't learn musch from this publication.

many of the suggestions can result from trial and error.

Thanks all. Much appreciated. The advertising is somewhat hyped, but it's hard to know what to make of it.

What's old is new... and what's new is old. Granted there's no silver bullet here, but the book makes you think about everything you could be doing... before buying a new piece of equipment to remedy a conceived issue.

An alternative and good addition to 'Better' is 'Sound Reproduction' from Floyd Toole. I am partial to the idea that 95% of 'better sound' lies in the speakers, placement and room treatment. Matching a speaker to a room is where the hard work lies. I enjoyed 'Better' and 'Sound'. Trial and error (?), no just keep tweaking the room/treatment. Spend time in getting a good room analyis via free computer software and 'see' what you hearing. Understanding 'sound' is the hardest part of this hobby.

I think the book can be a little useful but overall it really probably is not worth the money.
