If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments?
Thanks for the details @emergingsoul . I was under the impression that you did not have any panels and had set up your system in such a way that it sounds amazing, as-is. I was trying to understand the context of your post. I think however good t... 
Listening position/speaker position
Agreed with what others have said. I have read about a setup that divides room into 3 X 1/3. Place the speakers at the 1/3 mark (roughly 8 feet) from front wall and you sit on the 1/3 mark from the back wall. For the 15 feet width room, you might ...

@emergingsoul , Thank You for the complements. But that did not help, because seeing makes a difference and helps understand better, at least for me. And you did not mention anything about your room size, treatments, etc. I do have Carpenters and...

@emergingsoul , Why don't you post your system pics and show how it is done? Maybe we all can learn something from you!  
OPpo 205.... Awesome !!
One thing about the Oppo is future LASER replacement. Question - does a laser go bad if unused? I have NOT used the laser in my Oppo UDP-205 since I have been using it as a DAC since July-2020. Since 2020 July, I use the laser only once a year ... 
How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits
@mahgister , No one bashed any Chinese products. The discussion was how they effectively copy products and sell them blatantly as the same brand. If they were selling as a duplicate brand name, example Sharp Vs Shrap, then that would be different... 
15k for streamer and dac....how much on each?
@jaxwired , how much of a difference do you find between the SMSL and the Wyred4Sound DACs that you own? Which one do you prefer?  
How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits
The government of China does not recognize international patent laws and some people take advantage of this. They way "Copyrights" work is China - we have the rights to copy 😄  
Considering a Backert Rhythm 1.4, talk me out of it
Go for the new Rhythm 1.4. Get some NOS Mazdas and be mesmerized. Have fun!  
Room Acoustics, minimal treatment and measurements
Nicely done!! I agree - most people are better off treating their rooms and keeping their existing loudspeakers. Most folks assume that their loudspeakers are not compatible with their room and keep searching for a better one. I found that if we t... 
Hurray for Wadax!
Yay! And it only costs $45k 😁 I'm surprised other manufacturers haven't offered us this option with their CD players. My Oppo does all those discs. And now there are newer players as Oppo's replacement. So I am not sure what you meant.  
PC Software
You posted similar thread in October last year. Are you expecting different results this time around? Why not try the free version and try for yourself? Good luck.  
Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers
I don't know but I get the feeling that many of us are letting our distaste for the said individual influence our views on Tekton. And Having said that, a little humility shown by the Tekton owner won't do any harm either @arafiq YOU have N... 
Overkill for small room
any suggestions? I don't want you to have any health issue. So your wife's suggestion is the best 😊  
What’s the best DAC < 6k (system specific)
@hysteve , Trying to figure out how to listen to dsd as I gather it may be even better than pcm. This will depend on, if you have DSD files OR are using a SACD transport/player with HDMI out. If the latter, then you probably need either a D.BO...
