experimentation (obviously from what you're seeing here) is the key. I prefer an equilateral triangle. closer = better. Intimate and very deep soundstage. It's a one man listening seat, but there is always the couch for plain ole grooving to great sounds. However, when I want to enjoy what my rig can really do?--I pull my easy chair into a 6 foot equilateral triangle, take the grills off, seat back and look into a wall of sonic wonderment. Play around with your speakers. VERY room dependent, as you'll find out. You will certainly cut down the room factors with a closer seating arrangement. It has been my experience that most systems I've heard, the listener is way too far back from the speakers. It can be a visual turn off sitting so close, but not for this audiophool. peace, warren
Best Speaker Placement Rules you've used?
Thought a thread like this might be interesting. What have you found to be the best rules for speaker placement? Either in your own system and room or one that has worked for you in many.
