Bass Traps as Mid/High absorbers

1) Would it be a good idea to make the mid/high absorbers at first reflection points as 4" thick plain OC703 panels as it would increase the low frequency absorption. Or for the fact that these panels are in the walls (as opposed to corners) they will not be effective as bass traps.
2) Could someone also explain me why the lower frequency sounds gather up at corners?

Stereo Sound Japan 2007 Grand Prix

So I stopped by Kinokuniya (a Japanese equivalent of Barnes & Noble) near the NYPL, to kill some time. Went to the magazine rack and saw what is perhaps the most gorgeous looking stereo mag anywhere. It's a quarterly, so it's THICK. But as can be expected from a Japanese aesthetic, the magazine looked impressive, with lots of great pics. Some of the most droolworthy audio-porn I've ever seen in my life.

Pictures at an Exhibition

Ebay, Store & Vinyl

Hi,

A few weeks ago I was feeling stressed and generally in need of cheering up. Well i spent a few hours on ebay and visiting a local store beverly records. The point of this exercise was to purchase vinyl for my recent revival, however this vinyl was not purchsed with any view to the musical quality it was strictly purchased on emotion and memories of teenage days playing records on a cheap old record player.

starting from scratch, need ideas for a simple setup

I'm coming from an engineering/production realm but actually know little about the brands of receivers and speakers for home entertainment.

I live in an apartment so space is kind of an issue. I'm thinking bookshelf speakers or slimmer standing. Basically this set up will be used from everything. Movies, music listening from vinyl and cds, games, etc. Price is flexible but definitely on the budget side. I'm thinking around $400 for the reciever and $600-$800 for speakers. I have a TT, cd player, dvd player etc. and I'll need to get cabling, but I can figure that out.

Stereophile Review of Boulder 1060

Forums

I believe ST reviewed the Boulder 1060 in the Nov 2000 issue. Unfortunately I had to give away all my Stereophile back issues in conjunction with an international house move and the Back Issues service only seems to go back to Jan 2005. Is there any way to get hold of that issue, or even just a copy of that review?
