Yes....how the sound travels up the sides of the room in that tune...and past the listener....
....who is seated in the 2nd. row....middle seat.

I thought you had the side/rear speakers on...it was spooky....but very good !!!

A good room..... 8)

Carl....

Tried the "Gabriel Test" at home last night....
 ....no where near the distance your getting in your room.

What is this "Gabriel Test" a cd track? Which? What does one listen for... or something else, more insidious, requiring consenting adults?

TIA,
Paul

Paul:
(BTW, this is the Peter Gabriel album 'Up', 2nd track, 'Growing Up'.. which has become a test favorite for me.)
I really enjoy listening to music.

I swung by Carl's last night with my 16 yr old daughter to pick up the RS Jaco.   While we were there Carl treated us to that Gabriel track along with a few others.   That's about all it  took to blow her away.  Friends, I think we have another audio-addict in the making.   Carl then gave us a bit of the movie Casino Royale.   That definitely put her over the edge.  When we got in the car, she said "Dad, I don't know have a clue how to explain to people just how cool that room is!".

When old farts (any you know who you are ;-) can blow away a 16 year old girl, you know you must be doing something right!

That's right.  Expose them young to proper AV.  We need to get these kids off the MP3 bandwagon.

Mike's daughter is a very talented musician. Much harder to impress.
