The fourth Aperture II is scheduled to arrive later this week and is slated for the center of the rear wall (I've already drilled the mounting hole). Pending its delivery, I'm listening to familiar musical program with the diffusor/absorber panel currently installed there and, alternately, with it removed so I have a rough aural baseline for ascertaining the nature and degree of impact, if any, that fourth Aperture has on perceived system performance on that section of the wall seven feet behind me.

In the meantime, I continue to be impressed with what I'm hearing with Apertures at the left and right first reflection points. I'll just say that the bang-for-buck factor is extremely high...in this room, at least.
