Description
Dr. Paul Anderson is back on the show! We are setting up his new place in LA, and spent many hours dialing in the room. We chat about what it takes to set up a new room, in terms of speaker placement, what to listen for, etc. We had some really surprising results, especially with subwoofer setup and what it did to Paul's Harbreth monitors. Then, we listened to a number of different DAC's (digital audio converters) and the results were also REALLY surprising! Everything matters!
