Is your hi-fi & music a solo hobby?

[Barry]

My Anita is a TV watcher, she likes music provided she can dance and sink a pint or two while doing it. So like many I am a " Billy no mates listener" so 20 years ago I built myself an extension to create a listening room away from the TV, and where volume is not an issue, which turned out to be the best upgrade to date.

Good move if you have the means. It also allows you to tailor the room's acoustics for optimum effect. Sadly though, not everyone has the means to do it.

I believe someone here converted their stone basement into a listening room. Being below ground they had to 'tank' the room walls and floor to prevent the egress of moisture, but the acoustics would be very hard without suitable treatment.
