Cardas Speaker placement..

Not sure but whould this make a system sound lean?

Placement must stay at the current location as all my dedicated lines are at that end..The other side of the room is asymmetrical so that's why I originally chose to set up the system on this side of the room..

Thanks for the response everyone.I guess it's a give and take with this whole thing.I move them out and the imaging and soundstage is great but the bass goes away..But even when I put the speakers close to the back wall the bass is just not right.I tried every possible listening position as well.The only spot the bass is right to me is if I stand behind the speaker plane.

It's not the amount of bass it's the lack of..I don't know if I over did it with treatments.In the corners I use the LENRD bass traps In the corners on the walls i'm using some DIY panels I made from 3" 705 rigid fiber glass framed in wood.The tops of the panels are covered with uralex metro foam..the system sounds very lean or thin in bass.No matter where I put the speakers ,no matter where I put my chair it sounds lean .Once again I tried other speakers with the same result..Only when I walk behind the speaker plane does the bass comes to life.

Philjolet,you were saying about "out of phase"All hook ups are correct but it doesn't mean the guy before me didn't do something goofy to the speakers.How can I tell if everything's correct internally..?The bass modules are separate from the satellites so the connections on the bass modules could be reversed.
.

When I first moved into the house I did try it along the long wall .the results where not that good, bass was the same with a lot less soundstage depth..Though I settled in on the short wall.

I tried every possible placement with my speakers as well with always the same result.Great imaging but no bass.

My listening position is a little greater from the speakers then the speakers are apart .This seems to be the over all best position..but the bass is not there..

another question on the matter.My ceiling above my speakers is not sealed.What I mean is the drop ceiling is made from wood frames covered with black cloth.If the drop ceiling wasn't there you whould see the floor joist and the insulation.My question is if the ceiling was sealed with drywall traping in the sound whould this give me better bass?

Are most of your ceilings drop or drywalled?

Do you think by containing the sound it gives for better bass response?Maybe by containing it your able to move more air with the bass..

when I play at higher levels the bass is just about the same..

At the opposite end of the room the ceiling is lower but the room is not as symmetric as the current spot.The Rommel is somewhat "L" shape.If I would put the speakers at this end and have them out a little bit,there would be a cutout from the side wall on the left side.
