Title: Got to rearrange the living room today!
Post by: Tim on December 20, 2004, 03:34:52 PM
WOO-HOOO... it's like a brand new stereo  ;D

When I lived by myself I had my living room setup around the stereo. when I moved in with the girlfriend that didn't fly so the speakers were squeezed into a 4.5' niche in the corner on either side of the TV.With that setup I had to sit on the floor to get into any sort of sweetspot, with the way the speakers were setup the sound was horribly compromised

Finally broke her down to do some rearranging, took the right channel speaker and put it down the southern facing window and it is now the left channel, pretty much left the left channel where it was. Now the new la-z-boy recliner in is setting perfectly in the sweetspot....  8)

nice view of the southern front range including Mt. Bierstadt and Pikes Peak (70 miles away) out the window and directly behind my phantom image.

Still have to tweak the exact speaker positions but it's a start!

he wishes... that is our 10lb 7yo male mainecoon... he should way about about 20lbs but I guess he's the runt, his name is Yoda.

our new cat is named Kaya but Jason and Michelle noticed that she actually looks like an Ewok so perhaps a name change is in order ;D

Tim...

TaylorC here.  That couch caught my attention as well.  :)  Came from La-z-boy, eh?

Not to turn this into a thread for posting pet pictures, but check out our Maine Coon, Gordon (hence the name, 19lb Gordon)...
Will be four on 1.29 (bottom one was at six months, top is recent)...
