"Listen In Another Room" test reviewers use a lot. Old as the hills but always very popular, because it WORKS.
I use it all the time. Great tool.
Fine post.
Happy new year.

Ah, yes. This explains the "difference so dramatic my wife could hear it from the next room..." that audiophiles so often speak of!
Even the dog seems more contented these days... must be the reduced ultrasonic glare that the paltry AC cable previously used was causing! ;)
Cheers,
Presto
My big DIY omnidirectional speakers do a wonderful job of filling the house with sound, and the frequency balance remains pretty stable even when I'm in another room. Some smaller conventional standmounts, by contrast, only really sound right on a fairly narrowly defined vertical/horizontal axis. Outside the "sweet spot," some of the treble goes missing and the bass can be either deficient or boomy depending where I am in relation to the room acoustics.
