GIK polyfusers took 3 months to arrive but wow, worth the wait. Room treatment is so easy to overlook, but the rewards if/when you get around to it are really something.

With every little upgrade (or big one) the benefit of hearing more details, clarity, depth, soundstage... it's like an addiction to see when the return on investment is no longer worth the work, research and expense.

Better dac? Okay, but I heard the one bit into the Lumin2 was plenty. Worth going to a Holo... but the May KTE? Okay but now the interconnects are out of scope.

The time finally came that short of buying another house with balanced walls I was fine with the sound. Still, it tugged at me, all the comments re room treatment from friends and /r/audiophile that I talked at length with GIK who said that polyfusers for dipole speakers was key to being a bit of an even playing ground to our asymmetrical music loft. And they were right, with those and a pair of bass traps (and some huge panels in the ML CLX Art speakers) is pure magic when you choose your eyes.

Okay mods, was that 70 words? :)

Happy new year everybody!
