I've set my systen up as you descibe, and am very pleased. I only listen from one position, although sound is 'acceptable' along the line that is equadistant from the two speakers. Set up is crucial, as always. My speakers and listening area form an equilateral triangle. The speakers are each the same distance from their respective back walls, and each speaker is the same distance from the other speakers wall. Imaging and focus are great, and depth often surpasses what is possible with a standard arraingement because there actually IS physical depth in the center of the stage. On good recordings, soundstage extends well past the confines of the speakers.
Corner placement of stereo system
I have actively bi-amped, Krell driven B&W800's. I now have them placed along the long wall of a 25'X15' room.
To gain more space in the room for non-audio needs, I am considering reorienting the system so that it would be centered on one of the corners. The speakers would be unchanged in relation to themselves; but, they would be slightly closer to the rear wall, but the front plane would be much farther from the back corner.
Does anyone have any comments on what would be the sonic change.
Thank you,
Richard
