Oris room size requirements? (BD-Design)

Hi,

Well, it doesn't appear the Oris DIY will work for my space, unless other
can give more input. My room is 3.6m x 6.7m x 2.7m = 24 sqm or 65 cubed
meters. My actual listening area is 3.6m x 3.6m where the room is
actually partitioned by a bookshelf. And it's not going to grow at all.
It seams to truely enjoy a good horn, you need quite a bit more space that
what I'm working with. Sigh...

In principle you can listen to the Oris horns from a short distance but further away will open the sound more. Listening on a short distance makes the sound like coming more from a headphone except that the sound stage remains in position when you turn your head.

The sound coming from the Oris horn is "ready" at the moment that they leave them, you can even listen to them at 1m distance and still liking the balance and integration...

Good to read that the real lenght is longer and that the room is not soild square...

If the bookhelf is behind you then this will aborb reflections in a positive way and even prevents severe standing waves!

Ciao,

Bert
