No problem. I just wanted to make sure inmates knew that I did identify
the tubed amplifier, that I wasn't trying to hide anything.

I have written about my room several times in the magazine. You can see
photos at the link below. (Scroll down to the third row of images.)
>Will those specified measurements work in my room?
Not if your room is very different from mine.
>Is a 24 grand speaker system supposed to be weak in the 40Hz region?
It shouldn't be. But with the right amplifier and music that doesn't go
low in frequency - as I say in the review, bass guitar and kick drum have
the bulk of their energy higher than 40Hz - while the Carmel 2 doesn't
have any low-bass output, it can sound convincing.
