| Can you tell me why I didn't like the Reference 3a MM's? Jgoldrick, while it may not be practice given your listening environment, the single best thing you can do for your system is move your speakers. Some how, some way.

| DSP and stores - Anyone else get the feeling they might be sweetening? My local shop has room treatments, but there are no other gizmos employed. Not even higher end power cords or speaker wires. All pretty basic stuff really. Always tough to demo a speaker in a store of any kind. Room variations are simply too great... | |
| Would you donate a dollar to have these Members Review a Product? Mahgister... you forgot one. Ears. It’s pretty simple really.

| HDMI problems HDMI sucks... most of the reason I took all of it out of my primary listening system. It’s always a pain. I’m constantly rebooting/resetting our bedroom ROKU because the handshake fails one way or another. Drives me nuts. And BJ’s cables are great... | |
| How do you audition speakers at a store? It’s all about the relationship, as you seem to know already. What approach did you take when you began establishing your former relationship? Obviously it worked. Right? Anyway, you have to test the sales guy/gal to see if they actually have a cl... | |
| Opinions what are the best floor standing speakers in these ranges $$?? You didn’t mention new or used. New, a few. Used, a ton. To many to list specifically, really.
