Welcome, the kind review is because in my eyes its simply a fact you have crazy high quality acoustic sound as system was corrected of 02 Dec 2016 in wide area, as could you actual see those irritating invisible waves with your eyes and then corrected them take another better route to listening area. Such facts and results are hard not to admire done by diy style when one see the ordinary humble tools/gear and cost used.
Me too am a sucker for that sound, if you can get me the Steven Stills track i can try analyze in my 50 cm correction spot in space where acoustic quality is sky-high and also into headphones (promise to delete track again after test in i haven't payed copyright for it).
Regarding "AC/DC Highway to Hell" my thoughts was it sounded very good but that my own 2-way in magic spot and also within some 2 meter is bit dryer so lets see when i get above Steven Stills track how it goes.
In live track "Hotel California" we went to garden solve our need as smokers when kick drum started rule the number and left xrk971 in sweet spot so didn't notice so much, but you right there is plenty acoustic guitar into the track.
By the way talking tracks from Eagles live album "Hell freezes over" can tell track no 11 "The last resort" is such a track that really touches me inside by the instruments harmonics and vocal performance, not that i have any relative life situation to that track but just the musical performance. That track wesayso kindly played for me to go home on, wow here at home have to go headphones or magic spot in space or drive to town listening BeoLab 90 to get as high in quality as TC9 towers.
You do make a good point: Your near field listening spot IS dryer. With all the processing and the bits of hidden passive damping, my room is still an ordinary living room. It is bound to be "still there". But by having the indirect sound mimicking the direct sound it is very forgiving.
My Haas kicker/ambient addition only adds to that, trying to hide the room you're in and trading it for a better one. But it still is a room.
I'm glad you guys agree that it's "working" on so many different songs and genres. That's what I've been focussing on. My theory still is: it should be possible with good speakers to make everything sound a bit better.
It wasn't easy and it took me quite a while. It won't be "the reference" sound as I aim for listening enjoyment more than accuracy. I hope to get the best mix of those two. If I wanted accuracy I would have stuck to a near field setup.
Instead I opted for the most visceral experience I could get, hence the ambient channels and a slightly more "wet" presentation.
Remember the RT graphs from REW?
Without the ambient channels:
With the ambient channels on:
For me it shows better 'distribution' of indirect sound in the room. Helping to hide the real room.
Fooling the brain, that's what Stereo is, right? It's still quite a long tail. I'd need way more 'passive means' to get rid of the energy.
Top priority of this room is to keep it a living room. I'm thinking I succeeded to make it double as a listening room without using invasive means.
I don't know if I'm right, but I think this isn't so much different from what Linkwitz is trying to accomplish with his OB setup. His room is also very much a wet room. I guess I have a better defined RFZ*, but without any means to verify it's still a guess.
* = Reflection Free Zone, I aimed to get the first 20ms as clean as I could get it in my room.
Thanks received and listened and didn't take long, there is clearly no colorings from long lines because that acoustic guitar has very clearly that chorus/flanger sound here so case closed they just reproduce what they feeded

.
Thanks for that. It still might be right that my room/setup adds to the lush feeling, but it's a sauce that's spread out over all songs. I'm not using them as a Studio reference. Though in some parts they might even do better than the real thing

(that sounded a bit snobbish, I admit)
