3 meters away from monitor speakers is extremely too far. If you can place yourself away THAT far from speakers, perhaps you should consider getting a couple of horn loaded giants or at least, as you've mentioned getting a legit "cruiserweight" ...to... "heavyweight" types of floorstanding speakers.
Even at the stage of live performances is at the café venues like Birdland, Irridium or BBKing, I would probably find myself closer than 3 meters away most-likely
@tonyl719 A foot x foot-and-half x 3/4 foot is very small room anyways. How you can stretch to 3 meters no idea.
