** Arrogant Groper Fool Alert


** Start by covering the floor of that room with thick mats or carpet.

Its is crime to destroy the sound of good speakers by putting them in an
echo chamber.

If no can do - just buy a pair or two of decent headphones.



Thanks for the quick response, carpet no, I like my wooden floor


** Fine - your priorities are now clear.

YOU simply have no interest in good sound reproduction.

YOU are just another ****** who likes to collect hi-fi trinkets.


Stop wasting everyone's time - go away.

What a ****ing stupid response to someone who genuinely wants some
help.

These days bare floors are a compromise a lot of people have to live
with.

to O/P - a strategically placed rug or soft might help- back to your
question. I'd look for a used pair of Mission 752 Freedoms, which
worked well with the 8000A.

OR a different flavour would be Spendor/Harbeth.

make sure you listen with your amp in your room before parting with the
money - if you want to keep your bare floors, then try to sit as close
as poss to the speakers.
