Bookshelf vs diffuser panel. Who wins?

@jumia,

Bookshelf vs diffuser panel. Who wins?

Diffuser panel: Because a bookshelf is not a diffuser panel. See below:

I love books / bookshelves and we have nine floor to ceiling bookshelves in our house… after getting ride of half our books. Most newer stuff is accumulating on iPads now. Nothing more comforting than to be surrounded by knowledge. My partner and I dearly love knowledge and share 6 college degrees between us.

The appropriate terminology is what rather than who wins.  

What an excellent point.
Maybe it sounds better to say ‘which one wins?

Or simply ‘which wins’. Yeah maybe that one’s better.

I wonder if most people with bookcases display a dictionary? It’s sad but I only have a paperback dictionary and that’s hardly of substance since it’s kind of small. But I do have a hard bound thesaurus which is impressive. I have used it before too.

@dekay  We have two libraries of books in my home (75% my collection/25% my late former wife's).   We took a 12' wall in a spare bedroom and installed book shelving 8' high to store about 1500 books (she was an historian so 30% of those books are of California/Los Angeles/local history).  There are books on comedians, seashells (she was a collector), architecture, art, U.S. history among the topics.  Then in our formal and large family room, we have beautiful built-in bookcases on either side of our fireplace (room has a 19' peak) with another 1000 art books, Judaica, entertainment (TV/Movie) books and leather bound fiction.   Another closet is filled with at least 500+ paperback fiction (I read my fill in my youth-prefer opera now).  I know, this doesn't have much to do with audio.  Read my next post.
