The new room is better in all relevant aspects, reverb time is low such that intelligibility is outstanding, no more smearing, no more room boom. The overall response is much smoother due to the lower Schroeder frequency, so far I could not detect any room modes, and even if, my speakers allow for room correction, so it would be a matter of minutes to get rid of the mode. The speakers themselves provide crystal clear sound, without any stress or strain, even at elevated SPL.The speakers are on the long wall, so no more side wall reflections, thanks to the ceiling no more ceiling reflections, thanks to the good speaker dispersion the floor reflection is not really a problem. Definitely, the time I have spent in reading all those stuff about speaker design, psychoacoustics and room acoustics was well invested.

you will have to hire a boat instead of a car:-) Amsterdam airport is at 6 m below sea level, our place is at -2. And our house doesn't float yet.
...and don't know when the opportunity will present itself again. But if it does, I'll be over to your place with bells on, provided you're still above water that is.
