Heads up. Ornette Coleman’s group is playing at the Town Hall in New York City on March 28. If you have any interest in modern jazz (or modern music, period), you should buy a ticket now before they sell out.

4' wall?

Room Tuning & Acoustics
Submitted by edthemag on

I'm a newbie building a home theater room and need some help. My room will be 11'x13'x8' with hardwood floor, no windows. All walls/ceiling are plasterboard. Planned viewing is in the 11' direction. I'd like to make the wall behind the TV a half-wall, about 4' high. Behind that is another room 10' deeper and 15' wide. The half-wall is only to help the rooms feel open. Will this screw up my 7.1 surround? I'm more concerned with sound than aesthetics and will enclose the room if needed. Would appreciate any help, thanks.

i am puzzled. could someone more knowledgeable than me confirm what the peak level of this track is? thanks much!

The Entry Level

Last week, some of you will remember that I was in the market for some speakers - my 1994 AIWA unit was not cutting it.

In the end I decided to go with the AudioEngine 5's for a number of reasons. Here is the thing that has me confused:

The AudioEngine 5's sound clearer, more detailed, and far more spacious than my old AIWA's, but... they sound smaller.
