Room Size

18x12x8 (sorta)

System Overview

Music Preferences

I like it all, but I prefer the blues (as does any thinking man).

Room Description

I live in a tiny condo, so the system is where it is by virtue of not being able to fit anywhere else.

Acoustic Treatment

About 50 square feet of 2.5" acoustic foam, most of it on the rear wall. The wall/ceiling corners are patched, as are a few places on the front wall. The room is fully carpeted and there is a thick 8x10 Persian rug on top of the carpet

Listening Impressions

Considering the room, this stuff sounds pretty damn good.
