Hi PP

 

Thanks mate.. Im so pleased with this combo esp with the MIT cables! IT just transformed the Focal 1028be to a much luscious  way!

I don't have any probs  with echoes etc.. apart from bass boom ATM.

A possible answer (though it's expensive) for an ingrained problem, if it's partly caused by a suspended floor, is a speaker stand from Track Audio.

The one to look at is the 250 x 300, or 330 x 300 as seen here: http://www.kronosav.com/products#!/~/search/keywords=track%20audio&offset=0&sort=relevance 

It's only worth considering if nothing else works.

Sorry Cno..but that "bass boom" was before the MIT cable was in placed?

RE: system pics..

Thx for the reply Iceman... I was just wondering was all when I saw the , or what looks like wall to wall in the picture was all.

I have, well I think in my own head anyway that I HAVE a nice set-up for both my movie watching and music listening with my Tannoy Arena set-up like here (except my Tannoy sub is better): 

http://www.audiovisualonline.co.uk/category/575/tannoy-arena/

 

My godness I can only imagine as to how things must sound on or rather from such speakers, not just your own set-up but many others on this forum..... yep, I have envy...   good job

Next time you have a party.... remember the invite ...    woohoo!
