Agree 100% with @barrysandy  about the book. I can't speak about Jim Smith himself, but it wouldn't surprise me to find out he is a great guy.

An associate has loaned me Toole's recent book on loudspeakers and listening rooms and have almost finished it. A bracing alternative to much that passes as common wisdom.

I really like Jim’s book. If you are experienced in this hobby, it gives you that last 10%, the best 10% that makes big differences otherwise easily missed. Jim was gracious personally with his time at RMAF.

It's really an excellent book, and the first one I'd recommend any audiophile to buy.

I was lucky enough to find a copy in the library, many excellent tips. I did improve my listening with his speaker placement info.
