    Which part? :rofl:

    It's a type of escalating humor.

    In a nutshell the joke is about a project that starts out small, but then the person undertaking it becomes more and more ambitious. It grows and grows until it finally turns into a giant studio complex. So naturally your parents would complain because you change the whole house into something else, but then the added pun is that they eventually stop because they're so impressed by the end result.

    Or you could twist that whole thing into something else, by asking:

    "Now come to think of it, where _are_ his parents....?"

    Ive watched a few Studio Rescue Videos...
    (Ultimate Solution to rescue your Home-Studio:
    1. Move Stuff
    2. Position your Monitors
    3. Position absorbers and bass traps
    4. Get a Rode Microphone for free :rofl: )
    ...and I realized that I have to "rescue" my studio, too.

    So heres my idea for a new setup-plan:

    ...I meam I would have to buy/build a new desk, but I guess thats how it is.
    and dont be confused because of the flying monitors, just think there would be a stand...

    What do you think?

    I'd still use the longer wall (if your room is a rectangle). Less side wall reflection.

    Hm, I heard you should use the small wall because the reflection of your speakers looses power because they need a longer way... And actually its not possible to use the other wall...

    I think you picked the best possible position. Ideally you'd want to sit at the lower regions of (roughly) the first third of your room length (google lachot 38% rule). So if you were to use the longest wall you'd be too close to the middle axis. The further you move toward that axis, the worse the bass response will get.

    Use this simple method (adapted from Ethan Winer's approach) to find an ideal position:

    Rule of thirds again! :rofl:
