Order to chaos

Over the past few months I have been hard at work writing the next book in our series, The Audiophile's Guide. That first book, The Stereo, was an all-encompassing work covering the complete stereo system from electronics, to cables, to speakers. This newest book, The Speaker, is a much more detailed work specific to the challenge of setting up a pair of speakers. I can think of nothing more important in a high-end audio system than properly setting up the speakers. Even with the greatest electronics in the world, a less-than-great setup saps the life out of the music. One of the issues I kept running into during the research and writing phase was the amount of opinion and chaos among audiophiles as to the best way to set up speakers. (Wait! Audiophiles, opinions, and chaos?) Fortunately, there's a light at the end of the tunnel and I have confirmed it's not a train! Seriously, this is one exciting project for me to work on. We've just finished an extraordinary group of recordings in the new Octave Studio that will accompany the book in a step-by-step fashion and I cannot wait to share it with you. Fingers crossed for a July 2022 launch.
