Re: Help with Speaker Setup

Just wondering would GIK Acoustic Panels do the trick, they have them in all shapes, sizes and colours. There are some that look the same width and height of your loudspeakers, maybe if you placed one behind each speaker. They offer free advice what is best for your room/situation. https://gikacoust...

Re: Help with Speaker Setup

I agree with Fran's assessment, the problem is where the loudspeakers are sited. I think you should try what Fran has suggested, siting them away from free space behind and see what happens. If that works, can you try and reconfigurate the room to make the loudspeakers fit in.

Re: Help with Speaker Setup

From memory the Cereballs are expensive for what they are! Not sure if they will be a solution. Here is a link that might help you decide what to do...

Re: Help with Speaker Setup

I definitely think the loudspeakers need something behind them to get them to sing. It's a pity you don't have a wall that they could sit in front of and then you can 'tune' the speakers in the room.

Re: Ear plugs for gigs

I went to see Whitesnake playing at the SFX Hall in 1984, my mate and I left after 15/20 minutes or so. It was SO loud! Our ears were ringing for a couple of hours afterwards but the few drinks helped.

Re: "Tracking Angle" : Hi-Fi and Music review site

I've been a fan of The Tracking Angle magazine since the 1990s, I used to buy it in Tower Records when they were in Wicklow Street. Just missing a couple of issues. Michael was editor of the AnalogPlanet website, but started up The Tracking Angle website a couple of months back. https://i.imgur.com/...

Also Dundrum Shopping Centre, any time I went into Liffey Valley Golden Discs and they didn't have the LP I wanted, the guy behind the counter said that Dundrum is their warehouse and they would have it. Huge stock there!

Re: GOLDEN DISCS

Was down in Liffey Valley shopping centre and was surprised that Golden Discs have closed their shop there! It used to be HMV, now there is no record store there. A shame! It was Zavvi for a while as well... pity. It might have been awful but if that prime location is closing what of the rest? Forg...
