I never needed much room treatment with the WB speakers from the small monitor trinity to the larger Endeavours. . Let your speakers tell you when they are happy. Bring them out from the walls toe them in a bit sit about 6 to 8 feet back and then see how they sound. 

These speakers take quite a while to break in so be patient, relax ( I know that is difficult ) and see how they blossom. 

Sounds like you are looking for fuller bass. You don't say what speaker cables you have; they are important for synergy at this level. Not sure the sealed cabinet S5 would get you more fullness.

howdy i use purist audio neptune 3 metre luminist series also i have made significant changes that have helped the bass bloom more.

howdy all. just an update on the journey.

 

so i moved to a mk 2 ayon over mk1. it is better in every way but still keeps the same sound signature.

 

i then bought a gigawatt pf 2 power strip. which really opened the sound up. with 2 days i was buying a gigawatt pc 3se with a ls 1 power cable.

 

this really opened up the sound. clean clear and precise.

 

i then removed my home theatre signal from my dedication line and used my pf2 as a power isolater.

 

so pf2 has

 

TV

MARANTZ

SUBWOOFER

SILENT ANGEL BONN N8 SWITCH

 

gigawatt pc 3 se evo is run of dedicated gigawatt in wall power cable. pc 3 se has only.

 

VITUS SIA 025 in first socket

 

AYON S10 MK2 in last socket.

 

this made a substantial difference to weight power bass removing Home theatre pf2 from pc 3 se.

 

i was surprised at this as you would think they would filter one another out.

 

i then changed the 5 gang power gpo to a clipsal 2000 series 2 gang. not sure if that has achieved anything. i also have a clipsal 56 series plug which is switchless i will try later. ill keep you posted.

 

i then added 2 quantum science red fuses into the ayon and vitus one at a time vitus first then ayon second. these made a huge difference. power. depth richness. detail.

 

lastly. ive just had some acoufelt wall acoustic panels added to one of my larger walls. it looks great and has made my living room so much nicer to be in. especially listening to music and chatting with friends and family at the same time. before i always had the music basically off because of slap echo.

 

here are some photos...

Tile floor, glass top table, sliding glass doors, Yikes....Not a recipe for sweet sound. How about a few throw rugs Live a little. Risk a divorce, soften up that room. No more money of gear.
