There is only one real expert and that's the folks who actually
listen, look and buy the actual gear to see how it really performs.
The rest is all BS, just like Crantz name, sockpuppets and boat sold
long ago.

Theatre project continues with most wiring hidden now and my center
channel stand (which I made myself) in place. Front speakers have
about the best image possible and quite a bit nicer than I've heard in
some heavily modded rooms. With virtually no specific wall treatments,
there are almost no audible reflections.

while beating on helpless drunks during his misspent youth than it does
about the stereo....
