This is what your wife means when she says "The speakers take over the room!". All kidding aside, let me know when you have an open house and I will be right over!
Epic. To the room treatment comments, I think a system like this would crush any room interaction modes <g>. Seriously though - there would be floor to ceiling point sources generating a wall of sound. Must be incredibly immersive.
A wise person once said that the room is the most important component in an audio system. Baylinor raises a serious concern. Some experimentation with diffusers and absorbers would be worthwhile, and at reasonable cost.
I have to say this is probably the most impressive amount of audio equipment assembled I have ever seen in a listening room that is seemingly completely devoid of any acoustic treatment. Interesting concept.
Nice all out effort for an impressive speaker! Line source with prodigious LF is one of the great experiences of sound in this hobby. Kudos on going big to capture the enormity of it. Soundstage and scale together can't be faked, and you have acquired a grand expression of it.
The magnitude and refinement is eye-catching. I can only imagine what this system sounds like. Thinking out loud, the words "enveloping," "scale," and "thereness" come to mind - but truth be told, if I ever had the opportunity, I'm sure I'd just be lost and speechless. Stunning system.
