| Starting from scratch in a large room First, thanks very much to everyone who responded to this thread. So much high-quality advice/information (both technical and practical--heck, even psychological!) offered to a complete stranger, and I truly appreciate it. Maybe some negotiating ... | |
| Starting from scratch in a large room @kota1 A pair of Paradigm PW600 active speakers have everything you need to get started. That actually sounds like a really good option for me. I was considering replacing the soundbar in this room as well, so maybe I could just go with the w... | |
