How nice to find a lively audio discussion forum. Here, the main topics of conversation are home theater (obviously) and related subjects, with an emphasis on tweaking surround sound systems to get the most out of each particular room and installation. Lots of threads and information about room equalization, sub-woofer installation, and “BFD” - which turns out to be the Behringer Feedback Destroyer, a room EQ device that is especially useful for working with subs. You’ll also find about 20 other forum areas with titles like “Subwoofer Tests,” “Speakers,” and “Video Display Devices.”

Strange name for an audiophile loudspeaker company, but once you see the speakers, you’ll get the idea. Their distinctive designs look anything but boxy, mostly variations on round. They’re designed by two guys from Bulgaria, and these young men have the East European 5 o’clock shadows to prove it. I’m not sure where you’re going to be able to listen to the speakers. But then again, gear that looks this good isn’t likely to sound really bad. And in high-end loudspeaker design these days, cool looks seem to be more important than absolute audio perfection anyway. I would definitely like to have a pair or five of the Everything But the Box Terra LA model in my home studio, just for appearances.
