My Legacy Signature IIIs have every available surface area covered in PPT Mats. Yep, it looks weird, but the improvement in sound was really significant and well worth the effort. I listen in a low-light environment, so the mats on the speakers don’t bother me at all.
Last night the system had Janice Ian front and center ... almost like I could reach out and touch her. Also, I listened to a private recording of the L.A. Phil performing Tchaikovsky’s Second Piano Concerto transferred directly from the master tape. It was like I was being transported right into the concert hall ... and the piano was dead-on tonally. Simply amazing.

That's the most amazing part, that spine-tingling feeling of "it's right there!" Just can't get that any other way. Not that I have found. And I have tried a LOT of different ways!
Isn't it funny though, that guy, he's actually getting close, but never will get there because of his awful attitude. Won't ever even know what we're talking about. Sad. And yet, hilarious!
