Speakers that sound great in terrible rooms


I remember running into an audiophile who refused to consider anything about room acoustics. He bought speakers specifically for live, untreated rooms.

Anyone else? What was your solution?

Just going to say give these guy's a shot. Dumped my Sonus Faber Olymlica II for the the Celest and zero regrets and this is an American Company that is run by musicians.

Tall line source designs. Maybe the Sanders ESL. Diffusion on the wall behind the speakers.
Simulate and build to exact dimensions. The room has a unique quality as soon as you enter it - a quality to the silence. Music sounds good too.

That's my solution.
@erik_squires ...I've got a heater to contend with, so I hear your pain. ;)

..and then the ambient temp goes up...AC racket, yay..."It's always Something...."

@jsandman...Well, Walsh (and Ohms) do respond better to 'carefully treated spaces' because they're omnis..and depend on the room but in a different fashion.

Played loudly in a small space isn't something to recommend....unless you're not 'playing for nuance', *G*

At that point, you may as well put a dog door on the speaker enclosure and get in....;)
