I just bought my airline tix to HE2006, so I know <I>I'm</I> going to be there. I hope you will, too—because it;ll be a lot more fun if somebody else is there, too.
Wouldn't you just know it. As soon as I decide on a formal regime of measurements to accompany Stereophile's loudspeaker reviews—see Vol.12 No.10, October 1989, p.166—along comes some hot new technology that changes everything. Robert Harley reported in last month's "Industry Update" column how impressed he and I were with the new MLSSA measurement system from DRA Laboratories.
My speakers haven't moved very far from where they first landed on the night that <a href="http://blog.stereophile.com/stephenmejias/111005may/">John DeVore visited Jersey City</a>. The Arros, after the Gibbons, found a similar home — a comfortable spot, if nothing else, which works fine enough for me. It's a spot that allows me to walk into my bedroom easily, without having to brush up against a side wall or trip over any turncoat cable. A spot that appreciates symmetry and cleanliness and my apartment's obsession with order.
