I call it "environment." It's a sad story of fried amps but a nearly happy ending: When I first got my infinity speakers, they replaced bi-amped DCM Time Windows/Bases. The first hook-up sounded so good I gave 'em a lot of wrapped dollars in a strawberry basket. After I'd slept, and after I'd fried my GFA-1, and after I'd borrowed a GFA-555 <Middle Georgia, USA is a wasteland of hi-fi>, and after I had a walk outside behind the speakers, I realized that having 3 feet behind the speaker wasn't the issue. I had to deal with the square faced house next door. The bass to the rear was not impeded by my 1950's construction. To make a long story short, long live active crossovers ! They can make your house sound better <and lessen the jiggle next door.> p -- pski real stereo doesn't just wake the neighbors, it -enrages- them..
