Finally, I got a text that DHL is scheduled to deliver B2 this Friday. For a time, I wonder if they will deliver at all. It is good timing actually since I do not have anything that is in breaking in stage so I am ready to give it a fair chance.
I will water my house plants tomorrow to create more water molecules in the house. Will that help?
Either the wine with dinner was too good, or this B2 voodoo magic device actually made all the water molecules aligned into the best locations for music. The improvement was quite obvious! I’m amazed!
I put on the latest cd “AD Astra” by Il Volo because the music is a bit “noisy”, and I only put two B2 on top of the speakers. The three singers all calmed down, and they started singing smoothly suddenly.
I’ll try other two later. But Luca has showed me another device that really works. I’ll pour myself another glass and listen some more.
The more you drink (good wine) the more you can appreciate B2s!!!
Kidding apart if you want please PM me pics of your room (front wall area) in order to get a better idea of the depth around speakers and rack. I’ll be glad to provide you some ideas to place them where I had greater results.
I’ll try when the opportunity arrives. Let me tell you a funny one:
I told my wife these round metal things only cost a little more than the metal doorstops. Maybe because of that, she did not hear any SQ difference when placing them on top or side. The above location is the only place she said “maybe”. This was done with the other two on the window shelves, and she has no objection to that.
But I clearly heard a difference. Either she is right, or I am crazy; talking about Placebo effect!
I seem to remember reading somewhere in this thread that symmetry with the B2’s are important and that they seem to work best this way.
I’ve been waiting for my P20 internal fuse to settle down and last night was the time to try further experimenting with my B2’s.
I have four spread around the room, two along the sides and two behind the speakers.
I installed twin slot shelving behind the speakers to allow me have the flexibility of changing the height, see photo.
I started with the two along the side wall, which weren’t aligned opposite each other. I did this by moving one down the fireplace mantlepiece so that it set opposite the opposing one and then altered the shelves behind the speakers so that the B2’s sat at the same height as the two along the side walls and everything, soundwise, fell into place.
I have another two sitting atop my speakers, I’ll try moving them like dchang05 to my Townsend isolation plinths just to further test placement but certainly experiment with placement with the B2’s.
