Picking The Perfect Listening Room

from The Hifi Podcast with Darren and Duncan · host Darren and Duncan

When it comes to selecting a room for an audio system, many factors come to play. And many constraints need to be managed in order to get something reasonable for music playback.At the same time, a listening room at a ranch in Texas will have little in common with one in an apartment in Hong Kong. In this episode, Darren and Duncan discuss the needs of both rooms, and talk about the ideal conditions all of our rooms should aspire to.Two listener questions are tackled, one about taming a system’s forwardness with subwoofers, and another about crafting a taller soundstage…. possibly with subwoofers.The album pick this week comes from a guitarist from Sweden and is a mellifluous audiophile treat.  This podcast is powered by CommonGround Cables Whisper power cable.

The design & dimensions of a listening room can make or break a good audiophile setup. Sure, careful positioning and months of inching speakers can create gold from coal, but when a listening room has "it" going on, buckle in and hang on for the ride. In this Hifi Podcast, Darren and Duncan talk about the deciding factors when picking a room, whether in Texas or Tokyo.
