Thanks, Ric.

At this point “specificity” of the sings positioning is not my primary interest but I rather am looking into strategic and conceptual solutions.  For instance the Jessie’s idea to use attic  and ceiling  for midbass entry is very lucrative but how the hell bring 9’ horn with 2.5M mouth to an attic  I have no idea, unless the attic  is large enough to build it in there. Once again, at this point I just accumulate the thoughts, a sort of a pool of ideas from where I might fish something if I find a properly that I like otherwise. I find it useful to look at house and run a few thought out scenarios in my head.

What actually surprises me, and I never thought about it before, is that some people build very expensive and dedicated listening rooms in this houses and they practically never employ idea of integrated midbass horns.  I am talking about the folks who spent $200K-$300K juts for building the rooms and then they end up in there with a pair of Kharmas, Wilsons, Martin Logans or Von Schweikerts. I find it as a tremendous waste and I kind of envy people who exercise chance to arrange real-estate in accordance with these objectives. If to build that listening room from scratch and it to presume the use of horn-loaded midbass and open-bottom lower bass then it is possible to come up with incredibly interesting opportunities…
