After reading the many positive reviews of Synergistic Research hft's I decided to give them a try. The reason I wanted to try them was to increase the narrow sweet spot that Martin logans generally have.
Hft's are little metal round objects that are very small and attach to the walls with blue-tack. I took advantage of the annual Synergistic Research offer of buying 2 packs of hft's, get the 3rd free.
I bought a 10 pack set of normal hft's, a 5 pack of 2.0's which give a warmer sound and a 3 pack of wide angle x. On the front wall behind the speakers are 8 hft's that are placed like the Synergistic Research site recommends along with the wide angle x right at center.
The rest are dispersed around the room as in the directions. We attached these to the walls 5 at a time and then listened , then proceeded with the next five listening again. We then did the last five and then added the 3 wide angle x pack of hft's.
Just with the first 5 on the wall made a huge difference. What I thought before was a good soundstage was nothing compared to having the full hft set up. The stage gets wider, deeper and comes out into the room more. I have a love seat in my listening room. So you are sitting just beside center.
Now with the hft's I can move my head slowly from one side to the other without losing the image. I still can't beleive it. That formerly small sweet spot is now much larger. Best of all the music sounds better than ever. I must add I also installed a synergistic research FAQ as well.
If you would like to increase the narrow ml sweet spot and want the best musical experience I suggest you give these a try. Synergistic Research has a money back guarantee. Have a look at the reviews.
Cheers, Greg
