The vanishing stereo rack

If this catches on, we will save an awful lot of $$$$ on smart, even exotic, case design.  That will enable better SQ for money, which can only be a good thing.

But I don't think I'm alone in saying that I get a kick from seeing all that expensive case-work while I'm listening...

If that picture is the future, count me OUT.

Well that space does look like it would need some room correction.

Hey, i have a Sony boombox with built in cassette and CD and a bass boost button.  What more would you want?

Dirac is said to bring a multitude of improvements to the sound, including a larger sweet spot, more precise staging as well as deeper and tighter bass, among other things.

Where have I heard that before?

I have not heard Dirac specifically, but given how often problems arise in the bass this can be a very good thing.
