What a fun day! It was a pleasure to finally meet Jim. He truly is a kind gentleman.
I enjoyed the SongTowers that were playing with the AVA UltraValve when I came into the room but I liked the SoundScapes even more.
The SoundScapes were a beautiful blend of engineering and art. The bass is fantastic. It digs VERY deep but with no "boom" or ringing. I was surprised given the small size of the room. Jim agreed that if he had HT3s in the same room that he would be fighting a boomy bass. The mid range was great and the high end was open and airy. I was still wishing I could throw an acoustic panel at the reflection points and maybe a bass trap or two...just to see. But then you already know that I have a fetish for acoustic panels.
The veneer and finish choice was just stunning on the SoundScapes. Jim opened the curtains to let the light hit the finish and all you could say was "Wow"!
By the way, the Giants won with a 2 run blast in the bottom of the 8th! Not a bad day...
