I love the "Sit in the Crack" of the couch part. I've sat in the crack between two cushions of my couch for years because after many years of careful listening......That's the sweet spot!!. TRUE. Amen!.Dan Madden :T -
BAAAHAHAHAHA!
I totally get it. What a great article. And my wife was rather pissed lately when she saw the bill for some Cat Cables I just bought.
But this guy clearly is not a true audiophile. No TRUE audiophile would set it up so you have to "sit on the crack" in the couch to get the sweet spot.

Agreed. Buy a three seater couch and position it so the centre of the couch is in the sweet spot. You'll have the option of lying down if the going gets tough.
If it's a good sized couch 4 people will be able to sit on it comfortably for concerts and they'll all be in the sweet spot, albeit some in sweeter spots than others. There will be cracks everywhere but who's looking?

Doesn't everyone sit on a crack every time they sit down? :>) When I found that my couch was too large to position so that one could sit squarely on a cushion and still be in the sweet spot, I got rid of the couch. I now have individual Ekornes chairs that can be easily rearranged at will.Originally posted by from article

The only downfall to sitting on the crack a lot is that it 'scews' the cushions on either side. When you do sit squarely on them, they send to lean in the direction of the crack!!. ACK!!Dan Madden :TComment

Honestly.........
I find it incredulous to see so many grown men complaining about a little crack.Comment

Hmm, dunno about y'all but I find it rather impossible to *NOT* sit on a crack

While the photo of the room doesn't show much, it appears to be a untreated room. It amazes me that someone who obviously loves music and puts big bucks into equipment would ignore room acoustics/treatment.Seek out and destroy early high gain room reflectionsComment

In my years of stumbling around audio and HT-related forums, one thing I've noticed that many audiophiles seem to agree on are these things (note that this is for music, not home theater):- 2-channel is preferred over multi-channel
- Vinyl is preferred over CD, and even SACD/DVD-A
- Tubes are preferred

My living room is pretty shallow (but quite wide), and our couch is right up against the back wall. To make it worse, that back wall is actually our staircase, so one end of the couch has that wall all the way to the ceiling, and the other end of the couch is at the base of the staircase, so it's wide... -

Hi 'yall,
I was wondering whether you've had experiences where you set-up your speaker system in a very, very precise and measured way, and then found out that you had a "sweet spot" where the music was undeniably, unabashedly, uncompromisingly AMAZING - and that outside of...
