part 2: Using several small speakers would not provide that coverage. In-ceiling speakers are the least desirable due to the dispersion pattern.

Check out our site for a great great article on HT setup that provides the appropriate coverage to any room. It's called Home Theater Layout.

What you are after within a large room is a speaker that can move enough air to fill the space. Starting with the a subwoofer - the foundation of a system - you need enough power and output to fill the cubic volume of the area. Once you have the correct subwoofer, you then place the speakers to your primary listening area which is often smaller than the total cubic volume. The size of the primary listening area would dictate the size of speaker required in conjunction with the subwoofer.

Wonderful video, Alan! I hope to one day have a pair of those monster M80's but I may end up settling for the M60's. I like that you are able to not only upsell the great speakers, but also provide some very helpful information.

hi xs,

No, I've not heard of Tetra speakers. I'm doubtful of the "made for musicians" claim. What does that mean? If it suggests that musicians "hear" better than others, that's nonsense. A good loudspeaker is accurate, neutral, and neither exaggerates or diminishes any part of the audible frequency range. -- Alan

Hey Alan, have you ever come across Tetra Speakers? They're especially made for musicians and the price range is between $1000 & $70,000 each.

Just wondering if you've ever heard them first hand and what you think, are they worth it?
