Thanks,
Randy. Yes, those subtle bass cues are far more evident. As is so much else.
To tame the reflective mass that's the front of the dresser scrunched between the speakers, I hung towels from the top drawers last evening to cover the whole front surface. But my wife took one look and said, "Uh-uh."
I thought, "Well, there goes the ball game." Wrong. In the next instant she said, "I have an unused Afghan blanket downstairs that I have to throw in the wash. Would that work?"
Really tough being an audiophile in this house.
