Haven't got my pre-order in hand yet, but 100% concur with @Michael Scott's assessment of the show itself. The TV adaptation does a fantastic job of mirroring the dark humour and zeitgeist of the game. The world building, cinematography, and casting was perfect .

The original Isoacoustics Gaia 2 footers offered a significant improvement in upper bass and lower midrange clarity for our specific set up @Asere. The bolt-on Gaia feet replaced the factory foot option beneath the heavy mass loaded Skylan stands of all five bed loudspeakers (65 pound active ATC...

Tombstone seconded by Heat for me.

Thanks @phillihp23! It's a 4 bay 30" tall Salamander Designs Synergy series cabinet. I bought it back when we first had a toddler in the house (He is 18 now- LOL!) and I had a lot more gear to rack. Back then our first plasma-screen-based (movies and console gaming) home theater resided in the...

I'm a big proponent of owning the best physical media version available of your favorite movies and TV series. Despite having thoroughly culled and curated our physical media collections to get rid of titles we don't love enough to repeatedly watch or listen to, at this point our media...

I briefly owned a Kirmuss but found his cleaning regimen just as time consuming as the best practice use of the prior vacuum...

Both RPG Acoustic and GIK Acoustics (at opposite ends of the price spectrum) provide 3rd party testing data and engineering info for much of their respective product lines as well.

I just texted you @Sliderule. Do you own an Apple iPhone/iPad/Macbook with which we can communicate via Facetime?

I have an even cheaper proof of concept @skid00 & @Sliderule. -Visit your local Home Depot or similar builders supply store and purchase one or the other of what I've pictured below. -Keep your receipt! You'll need it later. -When you get home DO NOT OPEN THE PACKAGES. Simply stack the sealed...

As I previously suggested @Sliderule, reach out to Acoustic Sciences (Corporation) for some good advice and a possible solution. Art Noxon, ASC's founder built the very first Tube Trap prototypes with the specific intent to absorb the back wave of full range Magneplanar dipoles way back in the...

Some photos of the room as it is currently setup and acoustically treated along with a description of the gear and acoustic treatments you've employed would be very helpful @laurynasmega.
