RE: Another First Reflection Trap (FRT) Adventure : Quasi-Ambiophonics

Thanks, Ralph. I'll give RACE another try, taking into account what you've said here. My main problem is that my system does double duty for home theater so in the absence of an acoustically-transparent screen and a short-throw projector, I don't see how I could reduce the stereo angle much below 60 degrees, and I don't have $50,000 for BAACH. (Really, I don't begrudge them the selling price, but I don't see why there can't be an inexpensive software solution for head tracking.)

But I certainly want to give it a more serious try than I have in the past, with speakers at an optimal angle and careful adjustment of the parameters. And even if ambiophonics proves impractical for me because of the projection issue, I'm intrigued by the notion that you can do convolving reverb with inexpensive speakers -- I'd always thought that that would be impractically costly.
